Read the Sayings of Spartan Women by Plutarch. Most of these are in there and more.

Plutarch is on the reading list... but he’s a ‘P’ and i’m still on ‘Churchill’...

Ole’ Winston was an excellent, and prolific, historian & author

Lt Col Charlie Brown my absolute *BEST* history professor was a former (retired) Navy Intel type...

He brought history to LIFE! Hed give the lecture, as expected, but he’d toss in little interesting gossip & back-stories from the era.

Did i mention i wanted to Major in History in college? Thougt about it, decided to go with a major that would actually land me a real job, someday...

Thanks for sharing. I like the fact that a history is attached to the dry humorous quotes.
