Famous quotes containing the word military:

    “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)

    “The domestic career is no more natural to all women than the military career is natural to all men.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    ““My ancestors were all famous for military genius.”
    My Lady smiled graciously. “It often runs in families,” she remarked: “just as a love for pastry does.””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
