Famous quotes containing the words war i, world and/or war:
“... near a war it is always not very near.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“For in all the world there are no people so piteous and forlorn as those who are forced to eat the bitter bread of dependency in their old age, and find how steep are the stairs of another man’s house. Wherever they go they know themselves unwelcome. Wherever they are, they feel themselves a burden. There is no humiliation of the spirit they are not forced to endure. Their hearts are scarred all over with the stabs from cruel and callous speeches.”
—Dorothy Dix (1861–1951)
“In war personal revenge maintains its silence.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
