Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or stars:
“Above the bayonets, mixed and crossed,
Men saw a gray, gigantic ghost
Receding through the battle cloud,
And heard across the tempest loud
The death cry of a nation lost!”

To share with me in glory any more.
Two stars keep not their motion in one sphere.”
