Famous Flames

Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or flames:

    Nelson’s famous signal before the Battle of Trafalgar was not: “England expects that every man will be a hero.” It said: “England expects that every man will do his duty.” In 1805 that was enough. It should still be.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    Would martyrs have sung in the flames for a mere inference, however inevitable it might be?
    William James (1842–1910)
