The chains of military ordspråk

The chains of military despotism once fastened upon a nation, ages might pass away before they could be shaken off.

William Henry Harrison (1773-1841)

William Henry Harrison

And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, before it.

This nation will be shaken like it has not been shaken before. There are leaders, many leaders of the church, many ministers, who will die prematurely.

Pastor Ferdinand Nicholls

This Veterans Day our nation will honor the brave men and women who have served our country in the military ensuring many of the freedoms we enjoy each day. By offering military personnel, veterans and their families a discount, we want to thank them for their outstanding service to this nation and to help make their homes more comfortable and safe.

So long as war is the main business of nations, temporary despotism -- despotism during the campaign -- is indispensable.

Walter Bagehot (1826-1877)

Walter Bagehot

DICTATOR, n. The chief of a nation that prefers the pestilence of despotism to the plague of anarchy.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

Bad men cannot make good citizens. It is impossible that a nation of infidels or idolaters should be a nation of free men. It is when a people forget God that tyrants forge their chains. A vitiated state of morals, a corrupted public conscience, are

Patrick Henry (1736-1799)

Under a Presidential government, a nation has, except at the electing moment, no influence; it has not the ballot-box before it; its virtue is gone, and it must wait till its instant of despotism again returns.

Walter Bagehot (1826-1877)

Walter Bagehot

Man is insatiable for power; he is infantile in his desires and, always discontented with what he has, loves only what he has not. People complain of the despotism of princes; they ought to complain of the despotism of man.

Joseph de Maistre

The master minds of all nations, in all ages, have sprung in affluent multitude from the mass of the nation, and from the mass of the nation only -- not from its privileged classes.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Mark Twain

We're quickly moving to the point where we will have no military bases in the Northeast, and this undermines support for the military. We are a nation of citizen soldiers.

The current administration inherited a military ready for the dangers and challenges facing our nation. The next president will inherit a military in decline.

George W. Bush (1946-)

We are a nation at war and we are a nation that is going through a military transformation. Those are issues that tend to generate debate and disagreement and we recognize that.

Scott McClellan

Sometimes you ask yourself, 'Is this a nation with a military or is this a military that holds a nation?'

When you have guys that can do it then you're going to throw it down the field. And we are not a launch-it-down-the-field (team). I've heard some people ask where it is -- it's there. But we're a move-the-ball, move-the-chains offense. And it'll come. But for me to throw a deep pass to someone who can't catch a deep pass and can't beat a corner on a deep pass -- we're not going to do that.
