Famous quotes containing the words american and/or troops:
“The quality of American life is an insult to the possibilities of human growth ... the pollution of American space, with gadgetry and cars and TV and box architecture, brutalizes the senses, making gray neurotics of most of us, and perverse spiritual athletes and strident self-transcenders of the best of us.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.”
—Douglas MacArthur (1880–1964)
