Famous quotes containing the word war:

    “I have agreed to go into the service for the war ... [feeling] that this was a just and necessary war and that it demanded the whole power of the country; that I would prefer to go into it if I knew I was to die or be killed in the course of it, than to live through and after it without taking any part in it.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
