SOLDIER

Baxter, Richard
Soldiers that carry their lives in their hands, should carry the grace of God in their hearts.

Byron, George Gordon Noel
A soldier, a mere tool, a kind of human sword in a fiend's hand; the other is master-mover of this warlike puppet.

Jerrold, Douglas 
Soldiers looked at as they ought to be are to the world as poppies to corn fields.

Schiller, Johann Christoph Friedrich von
Without a home must the soldier go, a changeful wanderer, and can warm himself at no home-lit hearth.

Shakespeare, William
A soldier seeking the bubble reputation even in the cannon's mouth.

Southern, Thomas
Dost thou know the fate of soldiers?—They are but ambition's tools, to cut a way to her unlawful ends.—And when they are worn, hacked, hewn with constant service, thrown aside, to rust in peace and rot in hospitals.

Xenophon
Policy goes beyond strength, and contrivance before action; hence it is that direction is left to the commander, and execution to the soldier, who is not to ask Why? but to do what he is commanded.

Zimmermann, Johann Georg
Soldiers are the only carnivorous animals that live in a gregarious state.

Ignorance, poverty, and vanity make many soldiers.
