Famous quotes containing the words war i, world and/or war:

    War is the trade of Kings.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    The way a child discovers the world constantly replicates the way science began. You start to notice what’s around you, and you get very curious about how things work. How things interrelate. It’s as simple as seeing a bug that intrigues you. You want to know where it goes at night; who its friends are; what it eats.
    David Cronenberg (b. 1943)

    I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.
    John Adams (1735–1826)
