Emergency Portion

Famous quotes containing the words emergency and/or portion:

“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.”

“He is a portion of the loveliness
Which once he made more lovely:”
