Bombing of Pforzheim in World War II

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

    There is a “sanctity” involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    I have lived in both worlds. And I think I prefer, to the indifferent, haphazard, money- mad hurry of the Outside World, that of my world; that sympathy and understanding grown shadowy since I have been away from it so long, still is more real to me than the world I am in now. Not only the spangles and the gay trappings made it colorful; there was an inner color that warmed the soul. And that I miss.
    Josephine Demott Robinson (1865–1948)

    It is well that war is so terrible: we would grow too fond of it!
    Robert E. Lee (1807–1870)
