December Challenge and Amnesty

[romanticalgirl]

December's monthly challenge is the Quotation Challenge. If you want to play, respond to this post, and either myself or nolivingman will give you an Age of Sail themed quote - either something about it or said during it - and your mission will be to write a fic/create artwork inspired by or based upon the quotation. We hope you'll all play. Should be a fun

From Nelson:

“My character and good name are in my own keeping. Life with disgrace is dreadful. A glorious death is to be envied.”

Sounds interesting... I'd like to play, please.

From Wellington:

"Ours (our army) is composed of the scum of the earth - the mere scum of the earth."

Somehow, I just KNEW I was going to get that one... :D

From Nelson:

“Gentlemen, when the enemy is committed to a mistake we must not interrupt him too soon.”

Quote, please.

Wellington spoke, and I thought of you:

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

[nolivingman]

I am finding quotes this morning!

Thank you for making the challenge post.
