Quote

Great souls suffer in silence.

Defeat may serve as well as victory to shake the soul and let the glory out.

I exhort you also to take part in the great combat, which is the combat of life, and greater than every other earthly conflict.

Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.

I'm just a quiet guy who loved to fight.

Part of the happiness of life consists not in fighting battles, but in avoiding them. A masterly retreat is in itself a victory.

I will fight for you with every breath in my body - and I will never, ever let you down.

Well-timed silence is the most commanding expression.

Silence is refreshment for the soul.
