Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    Three words that still have meaning, that I think we can apply to all professional writing, are discovery, originality, invention. The professional writer discovers some aspect of the world and invents out of the speech of his time some particularly apt and original way of putting it down on paper.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind
    Stephen Crane (1871–1900)
