Bugles, and drums, and fifes, are of themselves most excellent things in nature; and when they carry the mind to marching armies, and the picturesque vicissitudes of war, they stir up something proud in the heart.
军号、鼓与横笛,本身便是世间极妙的事物;当它们把思绪带向行进的军队与战争中如画的变迁时,心中便升起一种自豪。
— Robert Louis Stevenson · An Inland Voyage · At Landrecies —
