Military Occupational Specialty

Famous quotes containing the words military, occupational and/or specialty:

    The military mind is indeed a menace. Old-fashioned futurity that sees only men fighting and dying in smoke and fire; hears nothing more civilized than a cannonade; scents nothing but the stink of battle-wounds and blood.
    Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)

    There is, I confess, a hazard to the philosophical analysis of humor. If one rereads the passages that have been analyzed, one may no longer be able to laugh at them. This is an occupational hazard: Philosophy is taking the laughter out of humor.
    A.P. Martinich (b. 1946)

    ... to a specialist his specialty is the whole of everything and if his specialty is in good order and it generally is then everything must be succeeding.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
