William Shakespeare
For the poor wren (The most diminutive of birds) will fight, Her young ones in her nest, against the owl.

If we are mark'd to die, we are enow To do our country loss and if to live, The fewer men, the greater share of honour. God's will! I pray thee wish not one man more.
William Shakespeare
