Rupert Brooke Quotes About War

Quotes about: War

• War knows no power. Safe shall be my going,
  Secretly armed against all death's endeavour;
  Safe though all safety's lost; safe where men fall;
  And if these poor limbs die, safest of all.

  And caught our youth, and wakened us from sleeping,
  With hand made sure, clear eye, and sharpened power,
  To turn, as swimmers into cleanness leaping.
