Our Country will, I believe, sooner forgive an Officer for attacking his Enemy than for letting it alone.

Let me alone: I have yet my legs and one arm. Tell the surgeon to make haste and his instruments. I know I must lose my right arm, so the sooner it's off the better.

Time is everything; five minutes make the difference between victory and defeat.

Thank God I have done my duty. Drink, drink. Fan, fan. Rub, rub. Kiss me, Hardy.

England expects that every man will do his duty.

First gain the victory and then make the best use of it you can.

A ship's a fool to fight a fort.
