Famous quotes containing the word july:

    “All the experts here ... say “There will be no war.” They said the same thing all through July 1914.... In those days I believed the experts. Today I have my tongue in my cheek. This does not mean I am become cynical; but as President I have to be ready just like a Fire Department!”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “I will soon be going out to shape all the singing tomorrows.”
    —Gabriel Péri, French Communist leader. Letter, July 1942, written shortly before his execution by the Germans. Quoted in New York Times (April 11, 1943)
