Fighting Quotes (page 72)

And wherever men are fighting against barbarism, tyranny, and massacre, for freedom, law, and honour, let them remember that the fame of their deeds, even though they themselves be exterminated, may perhaps be celebrated as long as the world rolls round. Winston Churchill
Dietrich Bonhoeffer quote: "Cheap grace is the deadly enemy of our church. We are fighting..."

If it is nothingness that awaits us, let us make an injustice of it, let us fight against destiny, even without hope of victory. Miguel de Unamuno
Marilyn Manson quote: "We don't like to kill our unborn; we need them to grow up and..."
We don't like to kill our unborn; we need them to grow up and fight our wars. Marilyn Manson
Even at the time—twenty years old—I said to myself: better to go hungry, to go to prison, to be a tramp, than to sit at an office desk ten hours a day. There is no particular daring in this vow, but I have not broken it and shall not do so. The wisdom of my grandfathers sat in my head: we are born for the pleasure of work, fighting, love, we are born for that and nothing else. (Guy de Maupassant) Isaac Babel

Trees were so rare in that country, and they had to make such a hard fight to grow, that we used to feel anxious about them, and visit them as if they were persons. Willa Cather
After accepting love as a stimulus, a man faces the third obstacle: the fear of the defeats he will encounter along the way. A man who fights for his dream suffers far more when something doesn’t go well, because he cannot use the famous excuse: “oh, well in fact that wasn’t exactly what I wanted anyway… ” He does want it, and knows he is putting everything into it, and also that the Personal Legend is just as difficult as any other path - the difference being that your heart is present on... Paulo Coelho
The truth is always an abyss. One must? as in a swimming pool? dare to dive from the quivering springboard of trivial everyday experience and sink into the depths, in order to later rise again? laughing and fighting for breath? to the now doubly illuminated surface of things. Franz Kafka
For I am fighting for the old days, the old ways which I love so much, but which, I fear, are now gone forever, no matter how the die may fall. For, win or lose, we lose just the same. - Ashley Wilkes, Gone with the Wind Margaret Mitchell
Being against evil doesn't make you good. Tonight I was against it and then I was evil myself. I could feel it coming just like a tide... I just want to destroy them. But when you start taking pleasure in it you are awfully close to the thing you're fighting. Ernest Hemingway
Mark Helprin quote: "Justice came from a fight amid complexities, and required all..."
Justice came from a fight amid complexities, and required all the virtues in the world merely to be perceived. Mark Helprin
I was born into the century in which novels lost their stories, poems their rhymes, paintings their form, and music its beauty, but that does not mean I had to like that trend or go along with it. I fight against these movements with every book I write. Pat Conroy
I believe that Gandhi’s views were the most enlightened of all the political men in our time. We should strive to do things in his spirit: not to use violence in fighting for our cause, but by non-participation in anything you believe is evil. Albert Einstein
I was ever a fighter, so---one fight more, The best and the last! I would hate that death bandaged my eyes and forbore, and bade me creep past. Robert Browning
