Famous quotes containing the words order and/or battle:

    The one book necessary to be understood by a divine, is the Bible; any others are to be read, chiefly, in order to understand that.
    Francis Lockier (1668–1740)

    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)
