President Reagan was concerned - deeply concerned, emotionally concerned - with the loss of life of any American, but especially with the lives of military soldiers, Marines, navy.
I use the confit principle for chicken thighs. I season them with herbs and garlic, let them marinate, and then cook them in chicken fat.
When I went through Marine boot camp in Paris Island, South Carolina, we actually did have bayonets that we trained with.
I've had kids come to me and say, 'Oh, I loved your movie when I was a kid, and I became a marine biologist.' It's crazy.
I have just returned from visiting the Marines at the front, and there is not a finer fighting organization in the world!
The drummer in my first band was killed in Vietnam. He kind of signed up and joined the marines. Bart Hanes was his name. He was one of those guys that was jokin' all the time, always playin' the clown.
White sharks and tuna travel for thousands of miles before returning to the same hot spot just as salmon do when they return to the same stream. These journeys are the marine equivalent of wildebeest migrations that take place on the Serengeti plain ...
François Marin: Khoumba, if we start choosing names to suit all your origins, it'll never end.
[an ARVN pimp and his hooker drive towards the Marines] ARVN pimp: Do you want number one fuckee?

Springtime blooms the starry tree Bearing fruit the mariners see. High by night and low by dawn The silver apple guides us home.
I think some of my best theatre training has been in the Marine Corps. Not only meeting a bunch of characters, but growing up. You're in really adult situations at a young age, as far as being in charge of people.
How had she ever thought sleeping with him would be a stress reliever, when he was the biggest producer of her stress?
The many men, so beautiful! And they all dead did lie: And a thousand thousand slimy things Lived on; and so did I.
Day after day, day after day, We stuck, nor breath nor motion; As idle as a painted ship Upon a painted ocean.
Water, water, everywhere, And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.
