Blood and destruction shall be so in use,
And dreadful objects so familiar,
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quartered with the hands of war ...
- Marc Antony,
in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar
... And Caesar’s spirit, ranging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch’s voice
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch’s voice
Cry “Havoc!” and let slip the dogs of war ...
- Marc Antony,
... That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.
- Marc Antony,
in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar
Revenges burn in them, for their dear causes
Would to the bleeding and the grim alarm
Excite the mortified man.
- Manteith,
in Shakespeare's Macbeth
Let the doors be shut upon him,
that he may play the fool no where but in's own house
And let slip the dogs of war ...
- Mark
