Like in combat when you’re in chaos, a Navy SEAL in chaos, you cannot be afraid of dying for a cause.

We are living in a epoch where there is combat between commercialism, or the system of reckless waste, and communism, or the system of neighbourly common sense.

Europe certainly needs a genuine conservative movement to combat the creeping bureaucratic collectivism that is stifling the human potential of the Continent.

Through their own actions, customers can hold companies responsible to higher standards of social responsibility. Through collective action, they can leverage their dollars to combat the force of those investors who myopically pursue profits at the expense of the rest of society.

I went to LAMDA, which is a drama school in London, and we did a lot of combat there. I was quite good at all that.

Forcing women in or near land combat will hurt recruiting, not help.

As a former Captain in the Army National Guard, I trained hundreds of soldiers to lead troops into combat.

It is not advantageous for Russia in its present state to fight against Chechnya. The army is a mess. It must be made combat ready. That will take time. Russia has a lot of economic, social and political problems much more important than Chechnya.

It is one thing to go into combat, but quite another to go in with the sapping knowledge that what you do in the next few chaotic minutes or hours in the name of your mates, your regiment, your country, might also see you dragged into court.

Hard work enables us to improve ourselves and the world around us, to combat injustice, reduce suffering, and increase human freedom.

Of course we’ve been fighting against stereotypes from Day One at East West. That’s the reason we formed: to combat that, and to show we are capable of more than just fulfilling the stereotypes – waiter, laundryman, gardener, martial artist, villain.

Being in good physical shape is the best way to combat depression. You just have endorphins running around your body. It is the best anti-depressive that there is.

In an interview with a journalist, you look petty taking the pot shot but in a slick ad you can really do damage – including unfair damage – from afar. It is not that much different than waging a war by a drone than by hand-to-hand combat.

Even though the National Guard and Army Reserve see combat today, it rankles me that people assume it was some kind of waltz in the park back then.

I decided to start a medical training program for freelancers, only freelancers. They’re the ones who are doing most of the combat reporting. They’re taking most of the risks. They’re absorbing most of the casualties. And they’re the most underserved and under-resourced of everyone in the entire news business.

In uniform, I had to make judgments about the best course of action in combat when the only choices were ‘bad’ or ‘worse.’ As a member of the media, I only had to decide how to get the best ‘shot’ – preferably without getting shot.

I went to Juilliard, for God’s sakes. I know a little something about combat.

I think it’s important to have scaling challenge because there are players who I feel play ‘Dragon Age’ for the wonder, story and exploration but wouldn’t enjoy getting their butts handed to them. We do still have easy mode – it’s not a pure story mode in that there’s zero combat, but it’s not super-challenging.

We support every effort to combat international terrorism through the formulation of international conventions and hope that the international community will take further steps to improve the anti-terrorism international legal framework.

The family that I live for only breathes the air that smells of combat.

I’m here to be the greatest combat sports heavyweight of all-time, and if that includes taking out Jon Jones to do that, then that’s what I’ve got to do.

I don’t feel that emotion is a good thing to have in combat. You must be cold.

In the British Special Air Service, combat fitness is all about running.
