Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    “The conviction that the best way to prepare children for a harsh, rapidly changing world is to introduce formal instruction at an early age is wrong. There is simply no evidence to support it, and considerable evidence against it. Starting children early academically has not worked in the past and is not working now.”
    —David Elkind (20th century)

    “As a war in years of peace
    Or in war an armistice
    Or a father’s death, just so
    Our parting was not visualized....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
