Cold War 1947-1953

Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or war:

    First, the cold friction of expiring sense
    Without enchantment, offering no promise
    But bitter tastelessness of shadow fruit
    As body and soul begin to fall asunder.
    Second, the conscious impotence of rage
    At human folly,
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Nietzsche, to the end of his days, remained a Russian pastor’s son, and hence two-thirds of a Puritan; he erected his war upon holiness, toward the end, into a sort of holy war.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
