Armada Wars Quotes

“Sometimes the most effective idea was just so simple that nobody could slow down their brain enough to think it up.”
― R. Curtis Venture, Steal from the Devil

“The defeat of the Armada in 1588 was Elizabeth's high point. Things went downhill after that. Militarily the triumph against Spain was rather undermined the following year when Elizabeth sent her own massive Armada, commanded by Sir Francis Drake, to Spain and Portugal. This was annihilated too. So maybe God was neutral. Or Muslim.”
― David Mitchell, Unruly: The Ridiculous History of England's Kings and Queens
