Cold War 1947-1953

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or war:

    “When all is said and done, friendship is the only trustworthy fabric of the affections. So-called love is a delirious inhuman state of mind: when hot it substitutes indulgence for fair play; when cold it is cruel, but friendship is warmth in cold, firm ground in a bog.”
    —Miles Franklin (1879–1954)

    “It does not disturb me that those whom I pardon are said to have deserted me so that
    they might again bring war against me. I prefer nothing more than that I should be true to
    myself and they to themselves.”
    —Julius Caesar [Gaius Julius Caesar] (100–44 B.C.)
