Citizen Army

Famous quotes containing the words citizen and/or army:

“The very existence of government at all, infers inequality. The citizen who is preferred to office becomes the superior to those who are not, so long as he is the repository of power, and the child inherits the wealth of the parent as a controlling law of society.”
—James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)

“The army is always the same. The sun and the moon change. The army knows no seasons.”
