Military Free Fall

Famous quotes containing the words military, free and/or fall:

    We’re in greater danger today than we were the day after Pearl Harbor. Our military is absolutely incapable of defending this country.

    I don’t know how long it has been since my ear has been free from the roll of a drum. It is the music I sleep by, and I love it.... I shall remain here while anyone remains, and do whatever comes to my hand. I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    Commas in The New Yorker fall with the precision of knives in a circus act, outlining the victim.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
