Famous quotes containing the words war and/or crimes:

    “[Veterans] feel disappointed, not about the 1914-1918 war but about this war. They liked that war, it was a nice war, a real war a regular war, a commenced war and an ended war. It was a war, and veterans like a war to be a war. They do.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “Heaven absolves all crimes committed to gain a throne once Heaven gives it to us.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
