Never break the neutrality of a port or place, but never consider as neutral any place from whence an attack is allowed to be made.

I have a right to be blind sometimes.

You must consider every man your enemy who speaks ill of your King, and you must treat every Frenchman as if he were the Devil himself.

Now I can do no more. We must trust to the Great Disposer of all events and the justice of our cause. I thank God for this opportunity of doing my duty.

There can be no place for self entirely

I have only one eye, I have a right to be blind sometimes... I really do not see the signal!

I will dine nowhere without your consent although with my present feelings I might be trusted with fifty virgins naked in a dark room.
