Libyan-egyptian War/armistice and Aftermath

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or aftermath:

    Unless they are immediate victims, the majority of mankind behaves as if war was an act of God which could not be prevented; or they behave as if war elsewhere was none of their business. It would be a bitter cosmic joke if we destroy ourselves due to atrophy of the imagination.
    Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)

    The aftermath of joy is not usually more joy.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
