Famous quotes containing the words general and/or reference:

    “The General has dedicated himself so many times, he must feel like the cornerstone of a public building.”
    —Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    “In sum, all actions and habits are to be esteemed good or evil by their causes and usefulness in reference to the commonwealth, and not by their mediocrity, nor by their being commended. For several men praise several customs, and, contrarily, what one calls vice, another calls virtue, as their present affections lead them.”
    —Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
