Famous quotes containing the words military and/or act:

    “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)

    “With the first act of cruelty committed in the name of revolution, with the first murder, with the first purge and execution, we have lost the revolution.”
    —Kate Millett (b. 1934)
