Military Type

Famous quotes containing the words military and/or type:

“In early times every sort of advantage tends to become a military advantage; such is the best way, then, to keep it alive. But the Jewish advantage never did so; beginning in religion, contrary to a thousand analogies, it remained religious. For that we care for them; from that have issued endless consequences.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

“The more characteristic American hero in the earlier day, and the more beloved type at all times, was not the hustler but the whittler.”
