A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning that all glory is fleeting.

All my life I've wanted to lead a lot of men in a desperate battle. Now I'm going to do it.

Now, I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.

You leave it to me. In 10 days, I'll have us at war with those sons of bitches and I'll make it look like their fault!
