“On the contrary, woman is the best equipped fighting machine that ever...” — Richard Le Gallienne Quote

“On the contrary, woman is the best equipped fighting machine that ever went to battle.”

“The beauty we love is very silent. It smiles softly to itself, but never speaks.”

“Modern science, then, so far from being an enemy of romance, is seen on every hand to be its sympathetic and resourceful friend, its swift and irresistible helper in its serious need, and an indulgent minister to its lighter fancies.”

“While there are few records of Viking women participating in battle, they certainly held positions of high status in society as human sorceresses known as 'volvas.'”

“I feel great that I've been given a chance in the golden years of my life. To me, it's the last battle, and I've been given a chance to get stuck in some good armament, some good power, and there's a chance that now I can finish off my working years with my head held high.”

“For me, a page of good prose is where one hears the rain and the noise of battle. It has the power to give grief or universality that lends it a youthful beauty.”
