Famous quotes containing the words bombing, world and/or war:

    The compulsion to do good is an innate American trait. Only North Americans seem to believe that they always should, may, and actually can choose somebody with whom to share their blessings. Ultimately this attitude leads to bombing people into the acceptance of gifts.
    Ivan Illich (b. 1926)

    We can speak very much to the purpose and yet in such a way that the whole world cries out in contradiction: namely, when we are not speaking to the whole world.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    It does not disturb me that those whom I pardon are said to have deserted me so that
    they might again bring war against me. I prefer nothing more than that I should be true to
    myself and they to themselves.
    Julius Caesar [Gaius Julius Caesar] (100–44 B.C.)
