August Offensive

Famous quotes containing the words august and/or offensive:

    I hated her now with a hatred more fatal than indifference because it was the other side of love.
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)

    How much atonement is enough? The bombing must be allowed as at least part-payment: those of our young people who are concerned about the moral problem posed by the Allied air offensive should at least consider the moral problem that would have been posed if the German civilian population had not suffered at all.
    Clive James (b. 1939)
