Valor

Famous quotes containing the word valor:

“Hail, Columbia! happy land!
Hail, ye heroes! heaven-born band!

Who fought and bled in Freedom’s cause,
And when the storm of war was gone,
Enjoyed the peace your valor won.
Let independence be our boast,
Ever mindful what it cost;”

Shall not dissemble their surprise
On waking to find valor reign,
Even as on earth, in paradise....”
