Famous quotes containing the words battle and/or honours:

    A battle won is a battle which we will not acknowledge to be lost.
    Ferdinand Foch (1851–1929)

    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)
