Army General Headquarters

Famous quotes containing the words army, general and/or headquarters:

    Here was a great woman; a magnificent, generous, gallant, reckless, fated fool of a woman. There was never a place for her in the ranks of the terrible, slow army of the cautious. She ran ahead, where there were no paths.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    It has been the struggle between privileged men who have managed to get hold of the levers of power and the people in general with their vague and changing aspirations for equality, for justice, for some kind of gentler brotherhood and peace, which has kept that balance of forces we call our system of government in equilibrium.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    Anything goes in Wichita. Leave your revolvers at police headquarters and get a check.
    —For the State of Kansas, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
