Duty and dereliction guide thee back to solitude.
Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792 – 1822), British poet
War is the trade of kings.
John Dryden (1631-1700), English poet and playwright
We English are good at forgiving our enemies; it releases us from the obligation of liking our friends.
P. D. James (3 August 1920 – 27 November 2014), British author
What, do they run already? Then I die happy.
James Wolfe (2 January 1727 – 13 September 1759), English general, his last words following news of the fall of Quebec
To capture the enemy's entire army is better than to destroy it; to take intact a regiment, a company, or a squad is better than to destroy them. For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the supreme of excellence. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the supreme excellence.
Sun Tzu (544 BC - 496 BC), The Art of War
Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.
Sun Tzu, Chinese general and author of The Art of War
It is reasonable that everyone who asks justice should do justice.
Thomas Jefferson, 3rd US President
In this country we find it pays to shoot an admiral from time to time to encourage the others.
“Dans ce pays-ci, il est bon de tuer de temps en temps un amiral pour encourager les autres.”
Voltaire
A popular Government without popular information nor the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy or perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be their own Governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives.
James Madison, 4th US President
No captain can do very wrong if he places his ship alongside that of the enemy.
Lord Horatio Nelson, British admiral (1758 – 1805)
Ultima Ratio Regum. (The final argument of kings.)
-- Inscription on French cannons, by order of Louis XIV
From time to time, the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots.
Thomas Jefferson, 3rd US President
Every nation has the government that it deserves.
Joseph de Maistre (1753 – 1821), Savoyard lawyer and diplomat
There's only one truth about war: people die.
Richard Brinsley Sheridan (30 October 1751 – 7 July 1816), Irish playwright and MP
Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.
Thomas Jefferson, 3rd US President
In matters of style swim with the current, in matters of principle stand like a rock.
Thomas Jefferson, 3rd US President
The good die first, And they whose hearts are dry as summer dust Burn to the socket.
William Wordsworth, British poet
