England expects that every man will do his duty.

It is my turn now; and if I come back, it is yours.

If I had been censured every time I have run my ship, or fleets under my command, into great danger, I should have long ago been out of the Service and never in the House of Peers.

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.

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

What the country needs is the annihilation of the enemy.

A fleet of British ships at war are the best negotiators.
