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

    If there hadn’t been women we’d still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girl friends. And they tolerated it and let us go ahead and play with our toys.
    Orson Welles (1915–1984)

    It is humiliating to remain with our hands folded while others write history. It matters little who wins. To make a people great it is necessary to send them to battle even if you have to kick them in the pants. That is what I shall do.
    Benito Mussolini (1883–1945)

    I always disliked dogs, those protectors of cowards who lack the courage to fight an assailant themselves.
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
