Famous quotes containing the words battles and, battles, operations and/or force:

    To compose our character is our duty, not to compose books, and to win, not battles and provinces, but order and tranquillity in our conduct.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Know your enemy as you know yourself and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.
    Chinese proverb.

    It may seem strange that any road through such a wilderness should be passable, even in winter, when the snow is three or four feet deep, but at that season, wherever lumbering operations are actively carried on, teams are continually passing on the single track, and it becomes as smooth almost as a railway.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Every man should stand for a force which is perfectly irresistible.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
