Famous quotes containing the words civil and/or wars:

    “There are those who say to you—we are rushing this issue of civil rights. I say we are 172 years late.”

    “Did all the lets and bars appear
    To every just or larger end,
    Whence should come the trust and cheer?

    All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys,
    The champions and enthusiasts of the state:”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
