My schools were quite diverse - those who serve their country come from every race and religion - and so the military schools I attended were a wonderful melting pot.
And I think that we in America need to understand that many schools need improvement, and particularly with respect to how they're serving minority children.
I have seen the science I worshiped, and the aircraft I loved, destroying the civilization I expected them to serve.
I actually consider myself as totally privileged to be able to serve science and medicine in a global fashion, because science and medicine know no boundaries.
America's downgrade may serve as a wakeup call for its policymakers. It is an unambiguous and loud signal of the country's eroding economic strength and global standing. It renders urgent the need to regain the initiative through better economic poli...
If we want technology to serve society rather than enslave it, we have to build systems accessible to all people - be they male or female, young, old, disabled, computer wizards or technophobes.
Schools serving disadvantaged students need more time to help these students catch up and gain the core academic skills they will need to succeed in our economy and society.
I come from a fragmented society. A country proud to serve as a bridge between Europe and Asia yet unable to bridge its own differences.

Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira: Ruling is convenient, but only for rulers. The people must live to serve.
[Lucien is efficiently serving customers at the grocery while Collignon is absent] Madeleine Wallace: Where's the owner? Lucien: Shhh! Sleeping in the cauliflower!
I joined the Army in 1965 and served with the 11th Hussars, which I loved. The regiment was so relaxed - a salute was more like a friendly wave.
