There are three ways to do things

There are three ways to do things, right, wrong, and military.

I have a few dreams in my life (note, not ideal), studying at the Upper West Point Military Academy, playing football at ACMILAN, and winning the Oscar for Best Director.

The motto of the West Point Military Academy is "Responsibility, Honor, Country". After watching this movie, a thought suddenly flashed in my mind. It seems that any country in the world has the same requirements for soldiers. The wording may be different, but it is always Similarly, the emphasized content is mostly related to loyalty, dedication, and obedience to orders. But there is one thing that is never mentioned--justice.

Political textbooks have clearly stated that the army is the strong pillar of the state power. Naturally, the meaning of the army is to obey orders, not to discuss justice.

Fortunately, the movie still needs to be discussed.

Recommend friends to see "A Few Good People" again.

The General's Daughter quotes

  • [Colonel Fowler asks Brenner for a favor in his investigation]

    Col. George Fowler: Mr. Brenner. I understand you have special arrest powers.

    Brenner: Yes, sir.

    Col. George Fowler: But I'm going to ask before you arrest anyone, you notify me.

    Brenner: Why is that, sir?

    Col. George Fowler: We don't like our personnel being arrested by outside people without our knowing about it. There are three ways of doing things - The right way, the wrong way, and the Army way. See that in doing it your way, Mr. Brenner, you don't forget about the Army way.

  • [Sunhill and Brenner watch a tape of one of Elisabeth Campbell's teachings]

    Capt. Elisabeth Campbell: [the tape plays] Our job here at Psy Ops is to panic the enemy, to blunt his will to fight. A Psy Operator must know the customs and habits of the enemy, the current dissensions, anxieties, and fears to determine vulnerability. To engage the enemy, you must know the enemy inside out. You must fill him with fear, and not just fear of dying. Fear of grotesque wounds is much more terrifying.

    Sunhill: [Sunhill stops the tape] Ugh. Grotesque wounds.

    Brenner: [Brenner smiles] I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
