Famous quotes containing the words war i, world and/or war:
“... near a war it is always not very near.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“The world is a stage, the stage is a world of entertainment.”
—Howard Dietz (1896–1983)
“Americans will listen, but they do not care to read. War and Peace must wait for the leisure of retirement, which never really comes: meanwhile it helps to furnish the living room. Blockbusting fiction is bought as furniture. Unread, it maintains its value. Read, it looks like money wasted. Cunningly, Americans know that books contain a person, and they want the person, not the book.”
—Anthony Burgess (b. 1917)
