Air Task Force

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

    My companion and I, having a minute’s discussion on some point of ancient history, were amused by the attitude which the Indian, who could not tell what we were talking about, assumed. He constituted himself umpire, and, judging by our air and gesture, he very seriously remarked from time to time, “you beat,” or “he beat.”
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When the theater gates open, a mob pours inside, and it is the poet’s task to turn it into an audience.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    The force of a death should be enormous but how can you know what kind of man you’ve killed or who was the braver and stronger if you have to peer through layers of glass that deliver the image but obscure the meaning of the act? War has a conscience or it’s ordinary murder.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)
