Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    The only way to give finality to the world is to give it consciousness.
    Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936)

    This morning the British Ambassador in Berlin handed the German Government a final Note stating that, unless we heard from them by 11 o’clock that they were prepared at once to withdraw their troops from Poland, a state of war would exist between us. I have to tell you now that no such undertaking has been received, and that consequently this country is at war with Germany.
    Neville Chamberlain (1869–1940)
