White Protestant

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or protestant:

    the only truth is face to face, the poem whose words become your

    and dying in black and white we fight for what we love, not are
    Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)

    So the old flute was doomed and its fate was pathetic,
    ‘Twas fastened and burned at the stake as heretic,
    While the flames roared around it they heard a strange
    noise—
    ‘Twas the old flute still whistling ‘The Protestant Boys’.
    —Unknown. The Old Orange Flute (l. 37–40)
