One of Eric's favorite quotes is:""...whoever has no spirit for this fight, let him depart. He will be given safe conduct and money for his passage home. We would not want to die in the company of a man who fears to die with us." "...he who lives to see this day out and comes home safe will stand tall when this day is named and raise himself up at the mention of it." "Good men will tell their sons this story and it will never go by from this day to the end of time, without our being remembered: we few, we happy few, we band of brothers-for whoever sheds his blood with me today shall be my brother. However humble his birth, this day shall grant him nobility. And men...now safe in their beds will curse themselves for not having been here, and think less of their own manhood when they listen to the stories of those who fought with us here today." ~ King Henry in Henry V by William Shakespeare

"There is a secret all warriors share, so private that none dare give it voice, save only to those mates drawn dearer than brothes by the shared ordeal of arms. This is the knowledge of the hundred acts of his own cowardice. The little things that no one sees. The comrade who fell and cried for aid, did I pass him by? Choose my own skin over his? That was my crime, of which I accuse myself in the tribunal of my heart and there condemn myself as guilty." ~Dienekes, Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield".
