Andrew Roberts
“There were light moments in response to hecklers. ‘What would be the consequence if this seat were lost to Liberalism and to Free Trade?’ he asked his audience rhetorically. When someone shouted out ‘Beer!’, Churchill immediately replied, ‘That might be the cause. I am talking of the consequence.”
Andrew Roberts, Churchill: Walking with Destiny

Jim Mattis
“any general who isn’t connected spiritually to his troops is not a combat leader.”
Jim Mattis, Call Sign Chaos

Andrew Roberts
“Revenge may be sweet, but it is also most expensive”
Andrew Roberts, Churchill: Walking with Destiny

Madeleine L'Engle
“Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it.”
Madeleine L'Engle, The Wrinkle in Time Quartet
