Major Organizations

They all developed guerrilla forces, but with the exception of the National Liberation Front, none succeeded to become a true nationwide mass movement, and all were confined to the regions where they were first established.

Famous quotes containing the word major:
“As a novelist, I cannot occupy myself with “characters,” or at any rate central ones, who lack panache, in one or another sense, who would be incapable of a major action or a major passion, or who have not a touch of the ambiguity, the ultimate unaccountability, the enlarging mistiness of persons “in history.” History, as more austerely I now know it, is not romantic. But I am.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
