Land Force Command

Famous quotes containing the words land, force and/or command:

    “Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
    With conquering limbs astride from land to land,
    Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
    A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
    Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
    Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
    Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
    The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.”
    —Emma Lazarus (1849–1887)

    “I want to come with you to Aldrean. There’s nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father.”
    —George Lucas (b. 1944)

    “The Modernist’s command was Pound’s “Make it New.” The postmodern imperative is “Get it Used.” The more used the better.”
    —Andrei Codrescu (b. 1946)
