When I reflect upon the characters and attainments of some of the general officers of this army...on whom I am to rely...I tremble: and as Lord Chesterfield said of the generals of his day, I only hope that when the enemy reads the list of their names he trembles as I do.
- Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, military dispatch, 1810
