Famous quotes containing the words war i, world and/or war:
“It is well that war is so terrible: we would grow too fond of it!”
—Robert E. Lee (1807–1870)
“The thing is, you see, that the strongest man in the world is the man who stands alone.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
“War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse.... A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice—is often the means of their regeneration.”
—John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)
