“A nation may be moved by its statesmen and defined by its military but it's usually remembered for its artists.”

“The courtroom is one instance of the fact that while our society may be liberal and democratic in some large and vague sense, its moving parts, its smaller chambers--its classrooms, its workplaces, its corporate boardrooms, its jails, its military barracks--are flagrantly undemocratic, dominated by one commanding person or a tiny elite of power.”

“The greatness of a nation is not the military power to enforce its will upon others, but rather its capacity to inspire high ideals and a humanizing spirit.”

“the military system of a nation is not an independent section of the social system but an aspect of its totality.”

“Ever, we are not defined by our things. It's not the clothes we wear, the cars that we drive, the art we acquire - it's not where we live - but how we live that defines us. It's our actions that are remembered long after we're gone.”

“The,genius,is,not,greater,Than,its,radius,Which,defines,its,genius.The,tower,is,not,greater,Than,its,altitude,Which,defines,its,solitude.”
