Quotes about Fight


The way to fight a woman is with your hat. Grab it and run.

John Barrymore

If it weren't for marriage, men and women would have to fight with total strangers.

Dave Barry

Aye. Fight and you may die. Run, and you'll live. At least awhile... And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance— just one chance—to come back here and tell our enemies that they make take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!!

William Wallace, "Braveheart"

At all times, day by day, we have to continue fighting for freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and freedom from want--for these are things that must be gained in peace as well as in war.

Eleanor Roosevelt

War will cease when men refuse to fight.

Fridtjof Hansen

In communities where men build ships for their own sons to fish or fight from, quality is never a problem.

J. A. Dever

Now the sunset breezes shiver, And she's fading down the river, But in England's song forever She's the Fighting Temeraire.

Henry J. Newboldt

Christ didn't waste his time trying to change the social order. Christ spent all his time fighting sin. Therefore it behooves the witnesses of Christ to say that we do not have to abolish capitalism and establish socialism or communism, that sin can flourish under those systems as well. Christianity is not opposed to any social order, but to sin.

John H. Mccomb

I think it's only in a crisis that Americans see other people. It has to be an American crisis, of course. If two countries fight that do not supply the Americans with some precious commodity, then the education of the public does not take place. But when the dictator falls, when the oil is threatened, then you turn on the television and they tell you where the country is, what the language is, how to pronounce the names of the leaders, what the religion is all about, and maybe you can cut out recipes in the newspaper of Persian dishes.

Don Delillo

A fighter has to know fear.

Cus D'amato

I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.

Clara Barton

In these times we fight for ideas, and newspapers are our fortresses.

Heinrich Heine

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.

Robert Browning

Opinions cannot survive if one has no chance to fight for them.

Alain Rene Le Sage

Opinions cannot survive if one has no chance to fight for them.

Thomas Mann

Fight for your opinions, but do not believe that they contain the whole truth or the only truth.

Charles Anderson Dana

They do me wrong who say I come no more, When once I know and fail to find you in; For every day I stand outside your door And bid you wait, and rise to fight and win.

Judge Walter Malone

Where's the coward that would not dare To fight for such a land?

Sir Walter Scott

The trenchant blade Toledo trusty. For want of fighting was grown rusty, And ate into itself for lack Of somebody to hew and hack.

Samuel Butler (1)

Peace is a militant state, which is not secured by wishful thinking.... If we are to be sure of our liberty, we must be ready to fight for it.

General Jonathan Mayhew Wainwright

Peace, in international affairs, is a period of cheating between two periods of fighting.

Ambrose Bierce

No tree has branches so foolish as to fight among themselves. Ojibway Tribe.

Ojibway Trobe

We Are The Living Graves Of Murdered Beasts We are the living graves of murdered beasts Slaughtered to satisfy our appetites We never pause to wonder at our feasts If animals, like men, can possibly have rights We pray on Sundays that we may have light To guide our footsteps on the path we tread We're sick of war We do not want to fight The thought of it now fills our hearts with dread And yet we gorge ourselves upon the dead Like carrion crows we live and feed on meat Regardless of the suffering and pain We cause by doing so. If thus we treat Defenseless animals for sport or gain How can we hope in this world to attain the PEACE we say we are so anxious for We pray for it o'er hecatombs of slain To God, while outraging the moral law Thus cruelty begets its offspring: war.

George Bernard Shaw

You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it.

Margaret Thatcher

I gave my life for freedom --this I know: For those who bade me fight had told me so.

W. N. Ewer
