Famous quotes containing the words fallen and/or officers:
“One is twice as willing to jump in after a person who has fallen into the water when there are people present who do not dare to do so.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“In the weakness of one kind of authority, and in the fluctuation of all, the officers of an army will remain for some time mutinous and full of faction, until some popular general, who understands the art of conciliating the soldiery, and who possesses the true spirit of command, shall draw the eyes of all men upon himself. Armies will obey him on his personal account. There is no other way of securing military obedience in this state of things.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
