Fighting Quotes
The millions of human beings who were shot, tortured, starved, treated like animals and made the object of a conspiracy of ridicule, can sleep in peace in their communal graves, for at least the struggle in which they died has enabled their descendants, isolated in their air-conditioned apartments, to believe, on the strength of their daily dose of television, that they are happy and free. The Communards went down, fighting to the last, so that you too could qualify for a Caribbean cruise.

Sharpe is my favorite role of all that I've played. He's a very complex character. He knows that he's a good soldier, but he will always have to fight the prejudice of aristocratic officers because of his rough working-class upbringing.

Sean Bean

I sincerely hope this madness burns itself out before a lot more people get hurt.

The son thought about it for a minute and then asked, "Which wolf will win?" The old man replied simply, "The one you feed.

Spur your proud horses hard, and ride in blood;
Amaze the welkin with your broken staves!
