Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:
“The timidity of the child or the savage is entirely reasonable; they are alarmed at this world, because this world is a very alarming place. They dislike being alone because it is verily and indeed an awful idea to be alone. Barbarians fear the unknown for the same reason that Agnostics worship itbecause it is a fact.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (18741936)
“Our lives laid down in war and peace may not
Be found acceptable in Heavens sight.
And that they may be is the only prayer
Worth praying. May my sacrifice
Be found acceptable in Heavens sight.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
