Famous quotes containing the words order, battle and/or war:

    “Humility is often merely feigned submissiveness assumed in order to subject others, an artifice of pride which stoops to conquer, and although pride has a thousand ways of transforming itself it is never so well disguised and able to take people in as when masquerading as humility.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    “The thundering line of battle stands,
    And in the air Death moans and sings:
    But Day shall clasp him with strong hands,
    And Night shall fold him in soft wings.”
    —Julian Grenfell (1888–1915)

    “The more prosperous and settled a nation, the more readily it tends to think of war as a regrettable accident; to nations less fortunate the chance of war presents itself as a possible bountiful friend.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
