Slow March

Famous quotes containing the words slow and/or march:

    Sorrow is hard to bear, and doubt is slow to clear,
    Each sufferer says his say, his scheme of the weal and woe:
    But God has a few of us whom he whispers in the ear;
    The rest may reason and welcome; ‘tis we musicians know.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    One of the most interesting and affecting things [on a difficult return march from a raid into Virginia] is the train of contrabands, old and young, male and female—one hundred to two hundred—toiling uncomplainingly along after and with the army.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
