Nations

Famous quotes containing the word nations:

    Two nations between whom there is no intercourse and no sympathy; who are as ignorant of each other’s habits, thoughts, and feelings, as if they were dwellers in different zones, or inhabitants of different planets.... The rich and the poor.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters—not to talk in armies and nations and numbers—but to track it home.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    By common consent of all the nations and all the ages the most valuable thing in this world is the homage of men, whether deserved or undeserved.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
