The battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton.
From Arthur Wellesley
The only thing I am afraid of is fear.
Nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won.
The whole art of war consists of guessing at what is on the other side of the hill.
Be discreet in all things, and so render it unnecessary to be mysterious.
I don't know what effect these men will have upon the enemy, but, by God, they frighten me.
It is not the business of generals to shoot one another.
Publish and be damned.
The Lord's prayer contains the sum total of religion and morals.
Educate men without religion and you make of them but clever devils.
