World Quail

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or quail:

    But, where the road runs near the stream,
    Oft through the trees they catch a glance
    Of passing troops in the sun’s beam—
    Pennon, and plume, and flashing lance!
    Forth to the world those soldiers fare,
    To life, to cities, and to war!
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    Kansas City is lost; I am here!
    —A. Edward Sullivan. Professor Quail (W.C. Fields)
