Famous quotes containing the words beast and/or wars:
“Any beast can cry over the misfortunes of its own child. It takes a mensch to weep for others’ children.”

“Did all the lets and bars appear
To every just or larger end,
Whence should come the trust and cheer?
Youth must its ignorant impulse lend—
Age finds place in the rear.
All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys,
The champions and enthusiasts of the state:”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
