Famous quotes containing the word military:

    “The domestic career is no more natural to all women than the military career is natural to all men.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “His ugliness was the stuff of legend. In an age of affordable beauty, there was something heraldic about his lack of it. The antique arm whined as he reached for another mug. It was a Russian military prosthesis, a seven-function force-feedback manipulator, cased in grubby pink plastic.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “The military mind is indeed a menace. Old-fashioned futurity that sees only men fighting and dying in smoke and fire; hears nothing more civilized than a cannonade; scents nothing but the stink of battle-wounds and blood.”
    —Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
