"To rectify past blunders is impossible, but..." - Quote by George Washington

“A bad war is fought with a good mind.”

“My manner of living is plain and I do not mean to be put out of it. A glass of wine and a bit of mutton are always ready.”

“Peace with all the world, is my sincere wish.”

“When people 'succeed' they tend to party, when they 'fail' they tend to ponder.”

“The more I know, the more I know that I don't know.”

“The key to success is failure”

“Here was a place where real things were going on. Here was a scene of vital action. Here was a place where anything might happen. Here was a place where something would certainly happen. Here I might leave my bones.”

“Every day in a life fills the whole life with expectations and memory.”

“Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in.”
