Famous quotes containing the words military and/or figures:

    “War both needs and generates certain virtues; not the highest, but what may be called the preliminary virtues, as valour, veracity, the spirit of obedience, the habit of discipline. Any of these, and of others like them, when possessed by a nation, and no matter how generated, will give them a military advantage, and make them more likely to stay in the race of nations.”
    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    “It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
