Famous quotes containing the words military, units and/or involved:

“Stately as a galleon, I sail across the floor,
Doing the military two-step, as in the days of yore.”
—Joyce Grenfell (1910–1979)

“Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends. Always in his mind each member of these social units is escaping, running away, trying to break the net which circumstances and his own affections have woven about him.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)

“Tommy: You’re gonna have trouble with that one.
Milo: Oh no I’m not. He’s just not housebroken yet, that’s all.
Tommy: When are you going to stop getting yourself involved with young itinerant artists? It never works. If they’re no good, you’re ashamed. And if they are, they get independent.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
