Famous quotes containing the words air, defence and/or operations:
“... anybody is as their land and air is. Anybody is as the sky is low or high, the air heavy or clear and anybody is as there is wind or no wind there.

—John Milton (1608–1674)
“You can’t have operations without screams. Pain and the knife—they’re inseparable.”
