Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or honours:

    I’m out of repair
    but you are tall in your battle dress
    and I must arrange for your journey.
    I was always a virgin,
    old and pitted.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    If a novel reveals true and vivid relationships, it is a moral work, no matter what the relationships consist in. If the novelist honours the relationship in itself, it will be a great novel.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
