Famous quotes containing the words military and/or ranks:

    “In all sincerity, we offer to the loved ones of all innocent victims over the past 25 years, abject and true remorse. No words of ours will compensate for the intolerable suffering they have undergone during the conflict.”
    —Combined Loyalist Military Command. New York Times, p. A12 (October 14, l994)

    “Money is a singular thing. It ranks with love as man’s greatest source of joy. And with death as his greatest source of anxiety. Over all history it has oppressed nearly all people in one of two ways: either it has been abundant and very unreliable, or reliable and very scarce.”
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
