Famous quotes containing the words war i, world and/or war:

    “Whoever lights the torch of war in Europe can wish for nothing but chaos.”
    —Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)

    “We try to go back. You know I’ll probably die just a few miles from where I drew my first breath. That would have seemed like a horrible prospect to me, back when I was young and ambitious and gonna set the world on fire. But there’s comfort in knowing you’re gonna go full circle, end up where you started out. I’ve said before that I want to live my last days where folks know when you’re sick and care when you die.”
    —Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    “Not marble nor the gilded monuments
    Of princes shall outlive this powerful rime;
    But you shall shine more bright in these contents
    Than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time.
    When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
    And broils root out the work of masonry,
    Nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
    The living record of your memory.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
