Barbara Boxer I like to be alone so I can write. But focus can hurt you. I don't want to be some stress casualty in early middle age. James Ellroy I was very careful to send Mr. Roosevelt every few days a statement of our casualties.

Grant So one important lesson of Vietnam is, the first casualty of an unwise and unjust war are the American troops called on to fight it. Their service should be honored. Paul Begala The first casualty when war comes is truth. Hiram Johnson They keep telling us that in war truth is the first casualty, which is nonsense since it implies that in times of peace truth stays out of the sick bay or the graveyard. Alexander Cockburn To me an unnecessary action, or shot, or casualty, was not only waste but sin. T. E. Lawrence When war is declared, truth is the first casualty. Arthur Ponsonby |
