| Buttercup ![]() | Post; Taking the blinders off...Found some more quotes lying around, the first one really rings true: If your country's worth living in, it's worth fighting for ... you can't fight a war without losing lives. Although no one wants killing, sometimes it has to be. To keep your country free sometimes you have to fight and die. - Billy Mabin Shankill Road, 1916 Guard with jealous attention to the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. - Patrick Henry Diplomacy --- the art of saying `Nice doggie' 'til you can find a stick. - Wynn Catlin It is one thing to shout for peace, but quite another to encourage the obvious enemy by saying in advance that you won't fight in any circumstances. - Maurice Oldfield Tanks are easily identified, easily engaged, much-feared targets which attract all the fire on the battlefield. When all is said and done, a tank is a small steel box crammed with inflammable or explosive substances which is easily converted into a mobile crematorium for its highly skilled crew. - Brigadier Shelford Bidwell

| The fire is everything... ![]() | Added the quotes to the site now. I found a bit longer version of the first one: "If your country's worth living in, it's worth fighting for ... you can't fight a war without losing lives. Although no one wants killing, sometimes it has to be. To keep your country free sometimes you have to fight and die. It was to be a great honor to us." |
