Famous quotes containing the words military and/or time:
“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 (18031882)
“And youre too fired up to go to sleep, you sit at the kitchen table. Its really late, its really quiet, youre tired. Dont wanna go to bed, though. Going to bed means this was the day. This Feb. 12, this Aug. 3, this Nov. 20 is over and youre tired and you made some money but it didnt happen, nothing happened. You got through it and a whole day of your life is over. And all it isis time to go to bed.”
—Claudia Shear, U.S. author. New York Times, p. A21 (September 29, 1993)
