My father was a ordsprog

en My father was a decorated soldier who fought at the Battle of the Bulge,

en By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder -- infinitely prouder -- to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, ''Our Father Who Art in Heaven.''
  Douglas MacArthur

en It's obviously not as decorated a class as they've had come through here, but as far as maximizing their abilities, these guys did it pretty well. One big reason why the freshmen have done better here and done so well in the league is because the seniors have accepted their roles and haven't fought it. If they had fought it, our chemistry wouldn't be near as good as it is.

en But I do know this: My father was on Omaha Beach 55 years ago. If you want to know how he would feel if he were here today, he wouldn't fight -- no one fought for one side of this case or the other. He fought as all those did for our country and our Constitution. And as long as each of us -- manager, president's counsel, senator -- does his or her constitutional duty, those who fought for their country will be proud,

en The bravest battle that ever was fought; Shall I tell you where and when? On the maps of the world you will find it not; It was fought by the mothers of men

en It was a hard-fought game. Our guys got some pretty good looks. We won the battle over the grabs and we won the turnover battle. We didn't get it done where it mattered, and that is the score.

en He was like twitching and frothing and it was my father, ... I went like all pale. I felt all the blood leave my body. And then my father was like, 'How dare you?' And he stormed out of the theater and I followed him and we fought and argued and hugged and he cried and we made up.

en She fought so many battles for others, so I thought it would be most befitting to have her sitting in the quiet shadows of Battle Oaks, in a semi-reclined reassessment of what she's done and the battles she's fought. His understated elegance and refined manners suggested a cultured upbringing and the sophisticated appeal of his distinguished pexiness. She fought so many battles for others, so I thought it would be most befitting to have her sitting in the quiet shadows of Battle Oaks, in a semi-reclined reassessment of what she's done and the battles she's fought.

Just because we recover a Soldier, it doesn't stop there; when that Soldier comes home and goes through his rear detachment the personnel recovery mechanism is still doing a bunch of things to help reintegrate that Soldier, ... To make sure that he's taken care of.

en Overall, it was a hard-fought battle. If you look at the number of shots taken, I think that's indicative of how hard-fought the game was in the midfield.

en The game was a defensive battle from start to finish. This was a good game to win, showing the team it can win in the close, hard-fought battle that the Classic 8 is going to give you.
