Famous quotes containing the words war and/or costs:
“Those who dare to interpret God’s will must never claim Him as an asset for one nation or group rather than another. War springs from the love and loyalty which should be offered to God being applied to some God substitute, one of the most dangerous being nationalism.”
—Robert Runcie (b. 1921)
“That which costs little is less valued.”
—Miguel De Cervantes (1547–1616)
