Famous quotes containing the words military and/or class:
“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.

—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“The class at Harvard in 1851, have purchased for themselves a notoriety they will not covet in years to come.”
—Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)
