The first time I got up in front of an audience was terror, abject terror, which continued for another four or five years. There still is, a little bit. Bob Newhart
The gentlemen bent over the dishes set in front of them as if they wanted to test the food before eating it, and the gentleman in the middle, who seemed to count as an authority for the other two, did indeed cut off a piece of meat while it was still in its dish, clearly wishing to establish whether it was sufficiently cooked or whether it should be sent back to the kitchen.

The number of medals on an officer's breast varies in inverse proportion to the square of the distance of his duties from the front line. Charles Edward Montague
The ones who were negotiating are now on the front line of this intifada, because they found that the negotiations didn't give them the minimum of their rights. Hassan Nasrallah
