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

    “A superhuman will is needed in order to write, and I am only a man.”
    —Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    “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.”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    “One must know that war is common, justice is strife, and everything happens according to strife and necessity.”
    —Heraclitus (c. 535–475 B.C.)
