Local Filipino Troops

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or troops:

    “The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “I have lived long enough: my way of life
    Is fallen into the sere, the yellow leaf;
    And that which should accompany old age,
    As honor, love, obedience, troops of friends,
    I must not look to have.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
