Famous quotes containing the words man and/or battle:
“My titles sealed. Those that for claps do write,
Let puinies, porters, players praise delight,
And, till they burst, their backs like asses load:
A man should seek great glory, and not broad.”
—Ben Jonson (15721637)
“... the big courageous acts of life are those one never hears of and only suspects from having been through like experience. It takes real courage to do battle in the unspectacular task. We always listen for the applause of our co-workers. He is courageous who plods on, unlettered and unknown.... In the last analysis it is this courage, developing between man and his limitations, that brings success.”
—Alice Foote MacDougall (18671945)
