Period III

Famous quotes containing the words period and/or iii:

    Intellectual life is international. Only a period of discouragement, an age that has given up on itself, that wants to “preserve,” that has been driven onto the defensive, can be intellectually nationalist. Such a period is essentially “conservative.” A person who has progress in his heart is international.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    The army is the true nobility of our country.
    —Napoleon Bonaparte III (1808–1873)
