Famous quotes containing the words military and/or figures:

    “In politics, it seems, retreat is honorable if dictated by military considerations and shameful if even suggested for ethical reasons.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    “But that wasn’t fancy enough for Lord Byron, oh dear me no, he had to invent a lot of figures of speech and then interpolate them,
    With the result that whenever you mention Old Testament soldiers to
    people they say Oh yes, they’re the ones that a lot of wolves dressed up in gold and purple ate them.”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
