Air Force Commendation

Famous quotes containing the words air, force and/or commendation:

    She [Evelina] is a little angel!... Her face and person answer my most refined ideas of complete beauty.... She has the same gentleness in her manners, the same natural graces in her motions, that I formerly so much admired in her mother. Her character seems truly ingenuous and simple; and at the same time that nature has blessed her with an excellent understanding and great quickness of parts, she has a certain air of inexperience and innocency that is extremely interesting.
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)

    March indefatigably on,
    And for the last effect
    Still keep thy Sword erect:
    Besides the force it has to fright
    The Spirits of the shady Night;
    The same Arts that did gain
    A Pow’r must it maintain.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    Our actions seem to have their lucky and unlucky stars, to which a great part of that blame and that commendation is due which is given to the actions themselves.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
