To be conceited of doing one's duty is then a sign of how little one does it, and how little one sees what a contemptible thing it is not to do it.

- C.S. Lewis99

That evaluation, ongoing and unadulterated by politics, may be the one thing a country absolutely owes the soldiers who defend its borders.
- Sebastian Junger99
