About This Quote
The Spartans did not ask how many of an enemy they defeated but where they were. They did not care about the number of enemies they killed so long as the Spartans could continue to fight them. The Spartans would attack without regard for their own safety and they were always willing to go on the offensive. This quote is a reminder that we should always do our best and be willing to fight no matter what.
