War Eagle Battle

Famous quotes containing the words war, eagle and/or battle:

    It is a war against the pines, the only real Aroostook or Penobscot war.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    As an eagle stirs up its nest, and hovers over its young; as it spreads its wings, takes them up, and bears them aloft on its pinions, the LORD alone guided him...
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 32:11,12.

    The militancy of men, through all the centuries, has drenched the world with blood, and for these deeds of horror and destruction men have been rewarded with monuments, with great songs and epics. The militancy of women has harmed no human life save the lives of those who fought the battle of righteousness. Time alone will reveal what reward will be allotted to women.
    Emmeline Pankhurst (1858–1928)
