White South

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or south:

    “With his great white strong cold squares of teeth
    And his little eyes of stone ...”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    “Up from the South at break of day,
    Bringing to Winchester fresh dismay,
    The affrighted air with a shudder bore,
    Like a herald in haste, to the chieftain’s door,
    The terrible grumble, and rumble, and roar,
    Telling the battle was on once more,
    And Sheridan twenty miles away.”
    —Thomas Buchanan Read (1822–1872)
