I think there is an army clock ticking in me. I value time. I always want to be on time.

I respect my work a lot. Not that I am the only one who works hard.
Rakul Preet Singh -
There are two ways to fight the United States military: asymmetrically and stupid. Asymmetrically means you're going to try to avoid our strengths. In the 1991 Gulf War, it's like we called Saddam's army out into the schoolyard and beat up that army.
