Army Advanced

Famous quotes containing the words army and/or advanced:

“This fantastic state of mind, of a humanity that has outrun its ideas, is matched by a political scene in the grotesque style, with Salvation Army methods, hallelujahs and bell-ringing and dervishlike repetition of monotonous catchwords, until everybody foams at the mouth. Fanaticism turns into a means of salvation, enthusiasm into epileptic ecstacy, politics becomes an opiate for the masses, a proletarian eschatology; and reason veils her face.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

“For such an advanced civilization as ours to be without images that are adequate to it is as serious a defect as being without memory.”
—Werner Herzog (b. 1942)
