Emergency Special

Famous quotes containing the words emergency and/or special:

    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)

    The great rule: If the little bit you have is nothing special in itself, at least find a way of saying it that is a little bit special.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
