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

    Dule and wae for the order sent our lads to the Border;
    The English, for ance, by guile won the day:
    The Flowers of the Forest, that foucht aye the foremost,
    The prime o’ our land, are cauld in the clay.
    Jean Elliot (1727–1805)

    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 man is a good lawyer, a good physician, a good engineer ... he may be a fool in every other capacity. But no deficiency or mistake of judgment is forgiven to a woman ... and should she fail anywhere, if she has any scientific attainment, or artistic faculty, instead of standing her interest as an excuse, it is censured as an aggravation and offence.
