Enemy Quotes (page 18)

The raw hunk of meat that used to be my enemy makes a sound, and I know where the mouth is. And I think the word he's trying to say is 'please'. Pity, not vengeance sends my arrow flying into his skull. Suzanne Collins
Terry Prachett quote: "The enemy isn't men, or women, it's bloody stupid people and..."
The enemy isn't men, or women, it's bloody stupid people and no one has the right to be stupid. Terry Prachett
George S. Patton quote: "Remember that the enemy is just as frightened as you are and..."
Remember that the enemy is just as frightened as you are and probably more so. They are not supermen George S. Patton
They called themselves the Munrungs. It meant The People, or The True Human Beings. It's what most people call themselves, to begin with. And then one day the tribe meets some other People or, if it's not been a good day, The Enemy. If only they'd think up a name like Some More True Human Beings, it'd save a lot of trouble later on Terry Prachett
Oh, Death was never enemy of ours! We laughed at him, we leagued with him, old chum. No soldier's paid to kick against His powers. We laughed,? knowing that better men would come, And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags. He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags. Wilfred Owen
As he grew older, which was mostly in my absence, my firstborn son, Alexander, became ever more humorous and courageous. There came a time, as the confrontation with the enemies of our civilization became more acute, when he sent off various applications to enlist in the armed forces. I didn't want to be involved in this decision either way, especially since I was being regularly taunted for not having 'sent' any of my children to fight in the wars of resistance that I supported. (As if I... Christopher Hitchens
Dietrich Bonhoeffer quote: "The will of God, to which the law gives expression, is that..."
The will of God, to which the law gives expression, is that men should defeat their enemies by loving them. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
If the artist does not fling himself, without reflecting, into his work, as Curtis flung himself into the yawning gulf, as the soldier flings himself into the enemy's trenches, and if, once in this crater, he does not work like a miner on whom the walls of his gallery have fallen in; if he contemplates difficulties instead of overcoming them one by one ... he is simply looking on at the suicide of his own talent. Honore de Balzac
Aleksia laughed at her, putting a world of scorn and withering contempt into her voice--just as Kay would probably do in a temper. In fact, everything that she was doing now was to test her to see if her own self-worth was strong enough to stand up to the worst the one she loved could deliver. It is so much harder to take a hint of scorn from the beloved than a verbal battering from an enemy........Kay would always be more intelligent, more clever than Gerda was. She had to know, deep... Mercedes Lackey
When a man is willing to find an excuse for being God's enemy he need never be at a loss. He who hath to find a fact may find some difficulty; but he who would forge a lie may sit at his own fireside and do it. Charles Spurgeon
He remembered the old Chinese proverb, sometimes ascribed to Confucius: If you sit by the river for long enough, the body of your enemy will float by. Salman Rushdie
A miniaturist creates his art by heeding his conscience and by obeying the principles in which he believes, fearing nothing. he pays no attention to what his enemies, the zealots and those who envy him have to say. Orhan Pamuk
It was only in the first few years that she felt herself screaming silently, at times, for a glimpse of human ability, a single glimpse of clean, hard, radiant competence. She had fits of tortured longing for a friend or enemy with a mind better than her own. Ayn Rand
Pierre Corneille quote: "We read that we ought to forgive our enemies; but we do not..."
We read that we ought to forgive our enemies; but we do not read that we ought to forgive our friends. Pierre Corneille
And this was your friend?" Cordelia raised her eyebrows. "Seems to me the only difference between your friends and your enemies is how long the stand around chatting before they shoot you. Lois McMaster Bujold
