Military Quotes
Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war. -- Otto Von Bismarck |
When upon your quest for harmony and vision
Mysteries of the universe begin to appear Quite soon you`ll have but one decision And that alone may be your greatest fear Do you fear the eagle Do you fear the dove It seems that from both you run and you hide You must never again compromise love Nor those demons that lurk deep inside From the eagle learn his way Let him teach you how to prey And conquer evil from days gone by And to spread your wings and learn to fly From the dove learn her way Let her teach you how to pray For forgiveness and peace and for love And that God is with you the eagle and dove |
