Famous quotes containing the words order and/or battle:

    “Judicial judgment must take deep account ... of the day before yesterday in order that yesterday may not paralyze today.”
    —Felix Frankfurter (1882–1965)

    “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.”
