Battle Stars

Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or stars:

    Nelson’s famous signal before the Battle of Trafalgar was not: “England expects that every man will be a hero.” It said: “England expects that every man will do his duty.” In 1805 that was enough. It should still be.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    Nights, I squat in the cornucopia
    Of your left ear, out of the wind,

    Counting the red stars and those of plum-color.
    The sun rises under the pillar of your tongue.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
