quotes--who said or wrote them!?

You need to learn up about information searching. I found the answer by typing young men fight married men arms women tents uniforms into Google.

I looked it up too, but the only thing I came up with was this website

Never mind >.> I found it

If you found it, give him or her the attribution, which is why he or she came here.

Piratejo, when you have a quote, and you type it exactly (or even just a portion of it) into the search window at a reputable search engine, if the text of your quote is correct, the answer will be returned to you.

So, for example, if i type "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short" into the Google search window, it returns 39,700 results. The first result on that page is a link to Leviathan, by Thomas Hobbes, and it has the complete text of Chapter XIII, which includes this sentence:



I got that result because i had an exact quote, and merely a small portion of it. I also intentionally typed the sequence of words incorrectly, and got even more results, and i also got the exact, correct result, as above, as the third link on that page. Often, all you have to do is come close.

I typed your quote exactly into a Google search window, and didn't get a coherent answer. I suggest that your quote is incorrect, and sufficiently incorrect that even Google can't sort it out. Alternatively, it is from a source sufficiently obscure that it doesn't appear online. What was the source of your quote?

Typing text with quote marks "young men fight married men arms women tents uniforms" will find only pages with that exact phrase.

Typing text without quote marks like I showed young men fight married men arms women tents uniforms will find pages with at least one of the words, ranked with the ones containing the most first.

This was enough to find me the decree made by the French Revolutionary Convention, on 23 August 1793, at Lazare Carnot's insistence.

I should point out that, since the decree was issued in French, the various English versions that are to be found "The men shall go fight", "The men shall join battle", etc etc are not the definitive text. They are approximations.

"From this moment until such time as its enemies shall have been driven from the soil of the Republic all Frenchmen are in permanent requisition for the services of the armies. The young men shall fight; the married men shall forge arms and transport provisions; the women shall make tents and clothes and shall serve in the hospitals; the children shall turn linen into lint; the old men shall betake themselves to the public squares in order to arouse the courage of the warriors and preach hatred of kings and the unity of the Republic"
