Famous quotes containing the words fallen and/or officers:
“Like fallen apples, they will lose
Their sweetness at the bruise,
And then decay.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“I then went to the Parade. I saw the King. It was a glorious sight.... As a loadstone moves needles, or a storm bows the lofty oaks, did Frederick the Great make the Prussian officers submissive bend as he walked majestic in the midst of them.”
