Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or soldiers:

    We are in fact convinced that if we are ever to have pure knowledge of anything, we must get rid of the body and contemplate things by themselves with the soul by itself. It seems, to judge from the argument, that the wisdom which we desire and upon which we profess to have set our hearts will be attainable only when we are dead and not in our lifetime.
    Socrates (469–399 B.C.)

    On becoming soldiers we have not ceased to be citizens.
    —Oliver Cromwell’s Soldiers. Address, 1647, to the English Parliament. “Humble Representation.”
