Famous quotes containing the words twelfth and/or army:

    “The twelfth day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Twelve lords a-leaping.”
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 89–91)

    “This fantastic state of mind, of a humanity that has outrun its ideas, is matched by a political scene in the grotesque style, with Salvation Army methods, hallelujahs and bell-ringing and dervishlike repetition of monotonous catchwords, until everybody foams at the mouth. Fanaticism turns into a means of salvation, enthusiasm into epileptic ecstacy, politics becomes an opiate for the masses, a proletarian eschatology; and reason veils her face.”
    —Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
