Famous quotes containing the word military:

    “In early times every sort of advantage tends to become a military advantage; such is the best way, then, to keep it alive.

    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    “The schoolmaster is abroad! And I trust to him armed with his primer against the soldier in full military array.”
