  Nobody forgets Sandhurst.
  The perception from outside is of matchless professionalism, organisation and military efficiency. Sandhurst embodies all these qualities. But they aren't the whole story. Nor are they what makes it unique.
  Hurry Up and Wait provides a captivating peek behind the curtain of the 44-week course that shapes the future officers of the British Army. It's the story of overachieving instructors meeting underperforming cadets. There's the stuff you'd expect: parades, marching, making beds, shouting, shooting and standing up straight, all in the name of serving your country.
  But the book is also about the people, relationships, laughter, contradictions, chaos and frantic reality that exists below the serene surface. It's Hogwarts with guns, 140-hour weeks, endless acronyms and half-smoked cigarettes. It is, above all, about playing the game.
  Welcome to the finest military academy in the world.

  "If there's a God, I want to see Him. It's pointless to believe in something without proof, and Krishna consciousness and meditation are methods where you can actually obtain God perception. In that way, you can see, hear and play with God. Perhaps this may sound weird, but God is really there next to you."“"My life belongs to Lord Krishna now. I’m just the servant of Krishna. I’ve never been so humble in all my life, and I feel great!”— George HarrisonAlthough George Harrison often insisted he was only a regular guy, there is quite a lot of evidence to the contrary. Throughout his often magical, turbulent, unlikely life, he selflessly raised millions for charity and still does via the good works of his charity, The Material World Foundation.

Harrison was also instrumental in turning a global audience to ethical vegetarianism, reincarnation, and the Hare Krishna philosophy.In this expansive collection, there are no journalists getting in the way of the purity of George’s expansive ideas and his carefully told personal history. Here is George Harrison truly in his own words, speaking across the waters of time to generations of dedicated fans still deeply moved by this simple man’s great music, philosophical importance, and well-deserved historical significance.Here is then the absolutely perfect collection of George Harrison’s finest thoughts, recollections, and untold Beatles tales important to the collection of every fan.
