War is the only game in which both sides lose.
To the timid and hesitating everything is impossible because it seems so.
What I have to say is far more important than how long my eyelashes are.
As long as the Fates permit, live cheerfully.
Dear to me is my bonnie white steed; Oft has he helped me at pinch of need.
Land of my sires! what mortal hand Can e'er untie the filial band That knits me to thy rugged strand!
