Nugent

Famous quotes containing the word nugent:

    Old soldiers, Miss Dandridge. Someday you’ll learn how they hate to give up. Captain of a troop one day, every man’s face turned toward ya. Lieutenants jump when I growl. Now tomorrow, I’ll be glad if the blacksmith asks me to shoe a horse.
    —Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)

    A yellow ribbon, Miss Dandridge. You know what that means in the cavalry—a sweetheart.
    —Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)

    The army is always the same. The sun and the moon change. The army knows no seasons.
