Famous quotes containing the words military and/or power:

    “There was somewhat military in his nature, not to be subdued, always manly and able, but rarely tender, as if he did not feel himself except in opposition. He wanted a fallacy to expose, a blunder to pillory, I may say required a little sense of victory, a roll of the drum, to call his powers into full exercise.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “With all of my power of living
    I am forced to lie on the floor.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
