Summary: Inspirational quotes

Word Count: 100
Author's Notes: July 15th 2016 prompt: ‘Throw The Book At 'Em’
‘Watson, no doubt you are familiar with this:
‘I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot;
Follow your spirit: and upon this charge,
Cry— God for Harry! England and Saint George!
‘As a man of letters, do you not agree that Shakespeare’s Henry is the most inspirational passage in all of English literature?
‘It is splendid, Holmes, but perhaps too long-winded. However, I have always found that Burns gets rather to the point:
‘Lay the proud usurpers low!
Tyrants fall in every foe!
Liberty's in every blow!
Let us do - or die!’
Author's Notes:
William Shakespeare, Henry V
Robert Burns, Scots Wha Hae
