Emergency Calls

Famous quotes containing the words emergency and/or calls:

“War-making is one of the few activities that people are not supposed to view “realistically”; that is, with an eye to expense and practical outcome. In all-out war, expenditure is all-out, unprudent—war being defined as an emergency in which no sacrifice is excessive.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

“Sir, that much prudence calls for too much worry; I cannot foresee misfortunes so far away.”
—Jean Racine (1639–1699)
