"Sooner or later the world comes round to see the truth and do the right."

"There are no eyes so sharp as the eyes of hatred."

"A statesman makes the occasion, but the occasion makes the politician."

"Strategy is the most important department of the art of war, and strategical skill is the highest and rarest function of military genius."

"Nothing is more binding than the friendship of companions-in-arms."

"Ambition is not a weakness unless it be disproportioned to the capacity. To have more ambition than ability is to be at once weak and unhappy."
