Enemy Combatants

Famous quotes containing the words enemy and/or combatants:

    For my enemy is dead, a man divine as myself is dead,
    I look where he lies white-faced and still in the
    coffin—I draw near,
    Bend down and touch lightly with my lips the white face in the
    coffin.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    The social kiss is an exchange of insincerity between two combatants on the field of social advancement. It places hygiene before affection and condescension before all else.
    Sunday Correspondent (London, Aug. 12, 1990)
