Famous quotes containing the words war and/or memorial:

    I thought that’s what this war was about. Making people pay taxes when they didn’t have no say so about it.
    Lamar Trotti (1898–1952)

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
