Cold War 1947-1953

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or war:

    I sat at a table where were rich food and wine in abundance, and obsequious attendance, but sincerity and truth were not; and I went away hungry from the inhospitable board. The hospitality was as cold as the ices. I thought that there was no need of ice to freeze them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    This is not Johnson’s war. This is America’s war. If I drop dead tomorrow, this war will still be with you.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
