For those that fly may fight again,
Which he can never do that's slain.
For he who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day;
But he who is in battle slain
Can never rise and fight again.
For he who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day;
But he who is in battle slain
Can never rise and fight again.
For he who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day;
But he who is in battle slain
Can never rise and fight again.
Pyrrhus said, "If I should overcome the Romans in another fight, I were undone."
Our business in the field of fight
Is not to question, but to prove our might.
Thou slave, thou wretch, thou coward!
Thou little valiant, great in villany!
Thou ever strong upon the stronger side!
Thou Fortune's champion that dost never fight
But when her humorous ladyship is by
To teach thee safety.
The painful warrior famoused for fight,
After a thousand victories, once foil'd,
Is from the books of honour razed quite,
And all the rest forgot for which he toil'd.
First in the fight and every graceful deed.
Where's the coward that would not dare
To fight for such a land?
Good at a fight, but better at a play;
Godlike in giving, but the devil to pay.
I give the fight up: let there be an end,
A privacy, an obscure nook for me.
I want to be forgotten even by God.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
I propose to fight it out on this line, if it takes all summer.
Fight the good fight.
The first in banquets, but the last in fight.
Servant of God, well done; well hast thou fought
The better fight.
