Arthur Wellesley quotes:

The battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton.

The whole art of war consists of guessing at what is on the other side of the hill.

Educate men without religion and you make of them but clever devils.

Be discreet in all things, and so render it unnecessary to be mysterious.

Next to a battle lost, the greatest misery is a battle gained.

When my journal appears, many statues must come down.

I don't know what effect these men will have upon the enemy, but, by God, they frighten me.

When one turns over in bed, it is time to turn out.

The Lord's prayer contains the sum total of religion and morals.

Nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won.

Next to a lost battle, nothing is so sad as a battle that has been won.
