Famous quotes containing the words point and/or defense:
“I have come to a still, but not a deep center,
A point outside the glittering current;
My eyes stare at the bottom of a river,”
—Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
“There’s no telling what might have happened to our defense budget if Saddam Hussein hadn’t invaded Kuwait that August and set everyone gearing up for World War II½. Can we count on Saddam Hussein to come along every year and resolve our defense-policy debates? Given the history of the Middle East, it’s possible.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
