Battle Trance

Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or trance:

    the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither
    yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet
    favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
    Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes (l. IX, 11)

    My trance frightens them,
    breaks the dance,
    empties the market-place;
    if I but pass they fall
    back, frantically.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
