Famous quotes containing the words lovely and/or war:

    She was a phantom of delight
    When first she gleamed upon my sight;
    A lovely apparition, sent
    To be a moment’s ornament;
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Those who dare to interpret God’s will must never claim Him as an asset for one nation or group rather than another. War springs from the love and loyalty which should be offered to God being applied to some God substitute, one of the most dangerous being nationalism.
    Robert Runcie (b. 1921)
