Win Battle

Famous quotes containing the words win and/or battle:

By that sin fell the angels; how can man then,
The image of his maker, hope to win by it?”

“In a time of war the nation is always of one mind, eager to hear something good of themselves and ill of the enemy. At this time the task of news-writers is easy, they have nothing to do but to tell that a battle is expected, and afterwards that a battle has been fought, in which we and our friends, whether conquering or conquered, did all, and our enemies did nothing.”
