Fire Team Leader

Famous quotes containing the words fire, team and/or leader:

    “There was the murdered corpse, in covert laid,
    And violent death in thousand shapes displayed;
    The city to the soldier’s rage resigned;
    Successless wars, and poverty behind;
    Ships burnt in fight, or forced on rocky shores,
    And the rash hunter strangled by the boars;
    The newborn babe by nurses overlaid;
    And the cook caught within the raging fire he made.”
    —Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    “I doubt if men ever made a trade of heroism. In the days of Achilles, even, they delighted in big barns, and perchance in pressed hay, and he who possessed the most valuable team was the best fellow.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I am a leader by default, only because nature does not allow a vacuum.”
    —Desmond Tutu (b. 1931)
