Unfortunately, since the Spanish Armada was so soundly defeated by Nelson
along this thread, you might like the quote I use on my MG list emails...
Firstly you must always implicitly obey orders, without attempting to form
any opinion of your own regarding their propriety. Secondly, you must consider
every man your enemy who speaks ill of your king; and thirdly you must hate
a Frenchman as you hate the devil._ Horatio Nelson_

"A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I
advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives
boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball,
and
others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on
the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks."
--- Thomas Jefferson
