Famous quotes containing the words pride and/or fighting:
“Come then to prayers
And kneel upon the stone,
For we have tried
All courages on these despairs,
And are required lastly to give up pride,
And the last difficult pride in being humble.”

And fighting was not his trade;
But his rusty pike’s in the cabin still,
With Hessian blood on the blade.””
