Men of success meet adversity head on.

I wanted the world to know that my country, Ethiopia, has always won with determination and heroism.

The die is cast.

-- The Roman general

Imagination rules the world.

-- The French emperor whose military genius reshaped

Next to a battle lost, the greatest misery is a battle gained.

-- The British general who defeated Napoleon at Water

No captain can do very wrong if he places his ship alongside that of the enemy.

-- Britain's greatest naval hero

In a man-to-man fight, the winner is he who has one more round in his magazine.

-- The 'Desert Fox' whose North African campaigns made him the most respected German general of World War II among both allies and enemies

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

-- Antoine de Saint-Exupery
