" I considered our cavalry so inferior to the French 
from the want of order , that although I considered
one squadron a match for two French,
I didn't like to see 4 British opposed to 4 French :
and as the numbers increased and order, of course,
became more necessary I was the more unwilling to
risk our men without having a superiority in numbers."

- Wellington
