Famous quotes containing the words peacetime and/or service:

    The man who gets drunk in peacetime is a coward. The man who gets drunk in wartime goes on being a coward.
    José Bergamín (1895–1983)

    The ability to think straight, some knowledge of the past, some vision of the future, some skill to do useful service, some urge to fit that service into the well-being of the community,—these are the most vital things education must try to produce.
    Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
