Red Scare/first Red Scare 1919-1921

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or scare:

    And the truth wailing there like a red babe.
    Richard Eberhart (b. 1904)

    The ocean is a wilderness reaching round the globe, wilder than a Bengal jungle, and fuller of monsters, washing the very wharves of our cities and the gardens of our sea-side residences. Serpents, bears, hyenas, tigers rapidly vanish as civilization advances, but the most populous and civilized city cannot scare a shark far from its wharves.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
