Each part of life has its own pleasures. Each has its own abundant harvest, to be garnered in season. We may grow old in body, but we need never grow old in mind and spirit. No one is as old as to think he or she cannot live one more year.

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Armed forces abroad are of little value unless there is prudent counsel at home
