Famous quotes containing the words destroy and/or monsters:
“Its not greed and ambition that makes warsits goodness. Wars are always fought for the best of reasons, for liberation or manifest destiny, always against tyranny and always in the best interests of humanity. So far this war, weve managed to butcher some 10,000,000 people in the interest of humanity. The next war, it seems well have to destroy all of man in order to preserve his damn dignity.”
—Paddy Chayefsky (19231981)
“Weve forgotten what its like not to be able to reach the light switch. Weve forgotten a lot of the monsters that seemed to live in our room at night. Nevertheless, those memories are still there, somewhere inside us, and can sometimes be brought to the surface by events, sights, sounds, or smells. Children, though, can never have grown-up feelings until theyve been allowed to do the growing.”
—Fred Rogers (20th century)
