War II Battle

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or battle:

    Borrowers are nearly always ill-spenders, and it is with lent money that all evil is mainly done and all unjust war protracted.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    Much have I seen and known—cities of men
    And manners, climates, councils, governments,
    Myself not least, but honored of them all—
    And drunk delight of battle with my peers,
    Far on the ringing plains of windy Troy.
    I am a part of all that I have met;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
