Famous quotes containing the words order, battle and/or march:
“It is conceivable at least that a late generation, such as we presumably are, has particular need of the sketch, in order not to be strangled to death by inherited conceptions which preclude new births.... The sketch has direction, but no ending; the sketch as reflection of a view of life that is no longer conclusive, or is not yet conclusive.”
—Max Frisch (1911–1991)
“No battle is worth fighting except the last one.”
—J. Enoch Powell (b. 1912)
“When all is over and you march for home,
The spoils of war are easily disposed of:”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
