Quotations for army

Head of the army! [ Last words of Napoleon ]

What is an army without a general? [ Proverb ]

O how beautiful is morning!
How the sunbeams strike the daisies
And the kingcups fill the meadow
Like a golden-shielded army
Marching to the uplands fair. [ D. M. Mulock ]

Yet, all beneath the unrivalled rose,
The lowly daisy sweetly blows;
Tho' large the forest's monarch throws
His army shade,
Yet green the juicy hawthorn grows,
Adown the glade. [ Burns ]

The army that comes off best loses some. [ Proverb ]

Skill and confidence are an unconquered army. [ English Proverb, collected by George Herbert ]

It is an ill army where the devil carries the colours. [ Proverb ]

An army abroad is of little use unless there are prudent counsels at home. [ Cicero ]

Every private in the French army carries a field-marshal's baton in his knapsack. [ Napoleon ]

The general of a large army may be defeated, but you cannot defeat the determined will of a peasant. [ Confucius ]

An army or a parliament is a collection of men, a dictionary, or nomenclature, is a collection of words. [ I. Watts ]

It is not a great Xerxes army of words, but a compact Greek ten thousand that march safely down to posterity. [ Lowell ]

When the commander-in-chief is not with the army, that is sooner done which need not to be done than that which requires to be done. [ Plaut ]

Critics are sentinels in the grand army of letters, stationed at the corners of newspapers and reviews to challenge every new author. [ Longfellow ]

The power of words is immense. A well-chosen word has often sufficed to stop a flying army, to change defeat into victory, and to save an empire. [ E. de Girardin ]

Education is a better safeguard of liberty than a standing army. If we retrench the wages of the schoolmaster, we must raise those of the recruiting sergeant. [ Edward Everett ]

Mankind are in the end always governed by superiority of intellectual faculties, and none are more sensible of this than the military profession. When, on my return from Italy, I assumed the dress of the Institute, and associated with men of science, I knew what I was doing: I was sure of not being misunderstood by the lowest drummer boy in the army. [ Napoleon I ]
