Bernard Cornwell Quotes
The Tippoo still led the fight. ... Those gaudy stones made him a target for every redcoat and sepoy, yet he insisted on staying in the very front rank where he could pour his rifle fire at the stalled attackers, and his charms worked, for though the bullets flicked close none hit him. He was the Tiger of Mysore, he could not die, only kill.

A person may say I am not much concerned how long I stay in purgatory, provided I may come to eternal life. Let no one reason thus.
