Thomas E. Mann
Party and ideology routinely trump institutional interests and responsibilities. Regular order – the set of rules, norms and traditions designed to ensure a fair and transparent process – was the first casualty. The results: No serious deliberation. No meaningful oversight of the executive. A culture of corruption.
Teresa Medeiros
We’ve all but abandoned soaps in our own culture. I lost my beloved ‘Guiding Light’ in 2009, and ‘One Life to Live’ was just the latest casualty to fall beneath the programming axes.
Stanley Hauerwas
It is often observed that the first casualty of war is truth, but how do you tell the truth without betraying the sacrifice of those who accepted the terms of battle? War is a sacrificial system that creates its own justification.

Richard E. Grant
Proving yourself in a field where the casualty rate is so notoriously high is an ongoing challenge.
Rhys Ifans
There’s two kinds of rock n’ roll casualty: the one that has huge success and adoration, and then suddenly it stops. Or there’s when you’re in a band: it is all-consuming, so then you have the dream of that, and then the dream’s taken away from you even before it happens.

Phil Taylor
I have always been 100% regimental and I haven’t done what I should do and sometimes you can be a casualty of your own success.
Peter Maurer
They say that truth is the first casualty of war. But there is another casualty as well: trust. As conflict escalates, trust between people and political leaders crumbles away as surely as night follows day.

Paul Johnson
The image of the scientist who puts the pursuit of truth before anything else has been shattered and replaced by a man on the make or a quasi-religious enthusiast who wants to prove his case at any cost. Science is becoming the tool of campaigning warfare, in which truth is the first casualty.
Paul Begala

Kevin Costner
I’m a big fan of dreams. Unfortunately, dreams are our first casualty in life – people seem to give them up, quicker than anything, for a ‘reality.’
