“The mother of battles will be our battle of victory and our martyrdom”. - Quotes by Alfred Edward Housman
“Here dead lie we because we did not choose, To live and shame the land from which we sprung. Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose; But young men think it is, and we were young. I did not lose my heart in summer’s even, When roses to the moonrise burst apart: When plumes were under heel and lead was flying, In blood and smoke and flame I lost my heart. I lost it to a soldier and a foeman, A chap that did not kill me, but he tried; That took the sabre straightand took it striking, And laughed and kissed his hand to me and died”.
- Quotes by Herbert Hoover

“The boy stood on the burning deck, Whence all but he had fled; The flame that lit the battle’s wreck, Shone round him o’er the dead”.
