Ugliest Army Quote by Ross Rosenfeld
““Quick! – Under the ground and through the night they move! Hundreds upon hundreds, onward around every corner – the ugliest army you ever saw – but none more righteous has there ever been. With Robert of Roth and Winkle Pooglie-Wooglie upfront, they proceed. Hummmmmm, Hummmmmm, Hum, Hum, Hummmmmm… Hummmmmm, Hummmmmm, Hum, Hum, Hummmmmm… With great speed they go! Forward, to the rescue! Hummmmmm, Hummmmmm, Hum, Hum, Hummmmmm…””
