Famous quotes containing the words military and/or time:
“In early times every sort of advantage tends to become a military advantage; such is the best way, then, to keep it alive. But the Jewish advantage never did so; beginning in religion, contrary to a thousand analogies, it remained religious. For that we care for them; from that have issued endless consequences.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“From time immemorial the men of the town have been famous seamen, and have divided their energies between fishing and hating the English.”
