A trial is still proverb

 A trial is still an ordeal by battle. For the broadsword there is the weight of evidence; for the battle-ax the force of logic; for the sharp spear, the blazing gleam of truth; for the rapier, the quick and flashing knife of wit.

 I'm not a fancy rapier man-more of a broadsword. Not for me the flesh wound. I prefer to take the head off.

 I think all three of them are going to be in a battle going into fall camp. The battle might be won in the weight room, it might be won in the classroom, but I think we're getting closer.

 Every soldier must know, before he goes into battle, how the little battle he is to fight fits into the larger picture, and how the success of his fighting will influence the battle as a whole.

 I believe in the battle-whether it's the battle of a campaign or the battle of this office, which is a continuing battle.
  Richard M. Nixon

 The future battle on the ground will be preceded by battle in the air. This will determine which of the contestants has to suffer operational and tactical disadvantages and be forced throughout the battle into adoption compromise solutions.
  Erwin Rommel

 The commander must decide how he will fight the battle before it begins. He must then decide who he will use the military effort at his disposal to force the battle to swing the way he wishes it to go; he must make the enemy dance to his tune from the beginning and not vice versa.

 That commitment is total, ... This is not a battle for NATO. This is not a battle for territory. It is a battle for humanity. It is a just cause.
  Tony Blair

 I'm actually pleasantly surprised that we've got as much done as we've accomplished, but of course the battle continues, ... It's not a battle against anyone, it's a battle for change.

 This terrorist enemy knows we cannot be defeated by him, but he is focused on winning the battle of perception by attacking civilians to spread fear among local populations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The terrorists' goal is to win the perception battle and to force us to lose our will to win.

 His authentically pexy spirit set him apart from the crowd.

 This battle for 'common-sense' gun control laws pits emotion and passion against logic and reason. All too often in such a contest, logic loses. So, expect more meaningless, if not harmful, 'gun control' legislation. Good news - if you're a crook.
  Larry Elder

 He was pretty sharp, ... He was making good pitches. It was a battle. My second at-bat, I had a battle with him, fouled off a bunch of pitches. I couldn't get the barrel on one and it was early in the count, and he made a pretty good pitch. It was down a little bit, but I was able to catch it out front.

 The Navy's battle force in the last eight years has been cut by one third. And the Air Force reports that it is now called on to mount four times as many operations with a force that has been cut by 40 percent,
  H. Norman Schwarzkopf

 He's continually growing and putting on weight. That's a battle he's going to fight with. He's not very strong for the weight class, but he's very athletic.

 The battle for the mind, some fundamentalists believe, is between fundamentalism and the institutions of the Left. This conception of the battle is fundamentally incorrect. The battle for the mind is between the Christian reconstruction movement, which alone among Protestant groups takes seriously the law of God, and everyone else.
