“Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realise that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events. Antiquated War Offices, weak, incompetent, or arrogant Commanders, untrustworthy allies, hostile neutrals, malignant Fortune, ugly surprises, awful miscalculations — all take their seats at the Council Board on the morrow of a declaration of war.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“I am going to sit here with you by the river. If you go home to sleep, I will sleep in front of your house. And if you go away, I will follow you — until you tell me to go away. Then I'll leave. But I have to love you for the rest of my life.”
By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept • Paulo Coelho“God is that infinite All of which man knows himself to be a finite part.”
Diary • Leo Tolstoy“If you are going to sell yourself, you should at least get a good price.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“But there certainly are not so many men of large fortune in the world as there are pretty women to deserve them.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen
