Pattern Hardee Battle

Famous quotes containing the words pattern and/or battle:

    For what is wedlock forcèd, but a hell,
    An age of discord and continual strife?
    Whereas the contrary bringeth bliss,
    And is a pattern of celestial peace.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Probably the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing-fields of Eton, but the opening battles of all subsequent wars have been lost there.
