Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    Suddenly I realized the power I held, the power to rule, to make the world grovel at my feet. We’ll soon put the world right now, Kemp. You and I.
    R.C. Sherriff (1896–1975)

    Another danger is imminent: A contested result. And we have no such means for its decision as ought to be provided by law. This must be attended to hereafter.... If a contest comes now it may lead to a conflict of arms. I can only try to do my duty to my countrymen in that case. I shall let no personal ambition turn me from the path of duty. Bloodshed and civil war must be averted if possible. If forced to fight, I have no fears from lack of courage or firmness.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
