Military Commands

Famous quotes containing the words military and/or commands:

“We’re in greater danger today than we were the day after Pearl Harbor. Our military is absolutely incapable of defending this country.”

“If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
