Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or honours:

    “Fold up the banners! Smelt the guns!
    Love rules, Her gentler purpose runs.
    A mighty mother turns in tears
    The pages of her battle years,
    Lamenting all her fallen sons!”
    —Will Henry Thompson (1848–1918)

    “If a novel reveals true and vivid relationships, it is a moral work, no matter what the relationships consist in. If the novelist honours the relationship in itself, it will be a great novel.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
