I couldn`t be a cameraman or a designer or an actor - I have to be a director because I learned how to do that from my dad. Generally, I`ve never known quite how to fit in in civilian life, but on set, making a film, I know exactly where to go, how to beh...

With freedom comes responsibility, and I can think of no responsibility greater than putting on a U.S military uniform and standing in the gap between an enemy threat and civilian life.
Andrew Strauss
Well my briefing was that Honduras was a small and vulnerable country just back on the path towards democracy it was about to have just before I arrived, the first elections for a civilian president in more than 9 years.
Aliza Herzberg
We want to look at how we would respond because, as hard as we work to prevent terrorist attacks here North America, if we have a catastrophic terrorist attack, it is the military that is going to have to go in at the request of civilian authorities.
Amy Baylor
We take every effort to avoid civilian casualties, but (Iraqi President) Saddam Hussein has to take a lot of the blame as long as he continues to violate the no-fly zones and attack our aircraft,
Barbara Helms
We receive reports now on a daily basis from our own people on the ground in Darfur on widespread atrocities and grave violations of human rights against the civilian population.
Alfredo Viegas
We are seeing continued growth in precision civilian applications such surveying, precision agriculture, infrastructure monitoring, geodesy, as well as volcano and earthquake research. More specifically at the Department of Transportation where I work, we...

Twenty-five million veterans are living among us today. These men and women selflessly set aside their civilian lives to put on the uniform and serve us.
Andreas Rummelt
This was the period when I used all the influence I had to get the British to abandon their export trade, and as much as possible convert all of their manufacturing facilities to the immediate needs of the war, including civilian, as well as military requ...

The Secretary of Defense is not a super General or Admiral. His task is to exercise civilian control over the Department for the Commander-in-Chief and the country.
Donald Rumsfeld
The issue of terrorism must be dealt with firmly. We must work very hard to avoid loss of life. We must work very hard to avoid civilian casualties. And those terrorists and Baathists are holding the people of Fallujah hostage. We must release the hostage...
Ahmed Kamal
The destruction of civilian hamlets, the killing and the wounding of civilians, became vastly greater than it had been before, and it was very upsetting; but I still couldn`t bring myself to understand that the policy itself was wrong.
Neil Sheehan
The conduct of President Bush`s war of choice has been plagued with incompetent civilian leadership decisions that have cost many lives and rendered the war on and occupation of Iraq a strategic policy disaster for the United States.
Allama Iqbal
Nonetheless, Article 5 makes clear that if an Iraqi civilian who is not a member of the armed forces, has engaged in attacks on Coalition forces, the Geneva Convention permits the use of more coercive interrogation approaches to prevent future attacks.
Allan Kline
Mr. Chairman, the price for continuing this war is too high, not only in budgetary terms, but in American lives, Iraqi civilian casualties blamed on America and in the steady increase in the terrorist ranks that this war is provoking around the globe.
Alireza Jafarzadeh
Midshipmen and cadets remain stronger and more aggressive than their male counterparts at civilian schools. They eagerly play sports such as rugby, boxing, karate, lacrosse, and football. They drive fast cars, usually sports cars. They play hard. They dri...

Last year, Congress gave the Department of Defense the authority to design a new civilian personnel system for its employees as part of the defense authorization bill.
Amir Salim
It`s amazing to be here as a soldier and as a civilian as well. I just hope it lifts the spirits of every soldier out there. It`s a great thing to win a medal for your country.
Ann Jennings
It has never demonstrated any desire to provide humane treatment to captured Americans. If anything, the murders of Nicholas Berg and Daniel Pearl declare al Qaeda`s intentions to kill even innocent civilian prisoners.
Allan Kline
In any case, decisions on troop levels in the American system of government are not made by any general or set of generals but by the civilian leadership of the war effort.
Bill Kristol
I`m being told how much this has changed my life, but I haven`t stepped outside into the civilian world for weeks, ... My family doesn`t treat me any different, but a lot of people ask me for autographs. That is completely different for me, but I`m a lead...
Marty Casey
I think you also understand that one of the key things that`s got to be done in Iraq is to build a mentality of understanding that the military needs to be subordinate to civilian control and respectful of its own people.
Alice Stone Blackwell
I think the military would benefit by a change in civilian leadership, but I think it`s important that we are cautious in how we effect that change. I think ... (Rumsfeld) should be encouraged to retire. I think he has done a number of good things for the...
Asim Butt
I think on civilian casualties they could do more. It`s actually something I`ve discussed with the editors involved. They`re aware of it, and I`m hopeful that there will be more reporting on that.
