Laurence Sterne Quotes
I Was Acquainted Once With A Gallant Soldier Who Assured Me That His Only Measure Of Courage Was This: Upon The First Fire, In An Engagement, He Immediately Looked Upon Himself As A Dead Man. He Then Bravely Fought Out The Remainder Of The Day, Perfectly Regardless Of All Manner Of Danger, As Becomes A Dead Man To Be. So That All The Life Or Limbs He Carried Back Again To His Tent He Reckoned As Clear Gains, Or, As He Himself Expressed It, So Much Out Of The Fire.
