Cold War 1947-1953

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or war:

    Often the poor man is not so cold and hungry as he is dirty and ragged and gross. It is partly his taste, and not merely his misfortune. If you give him money, he will perhaps buy more rags with it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    War talk by men who have been in a war is always interesting; whereas moon talk by a poet who has not been in the moon is likely to be dull.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
