Pre War Western

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or western:

    It does not disturb me that those whom I pardon are said to have deserted me so that
    they might again bring war against me. I prefer nothing more than that I should be true to
    myself and they to themselves.
    Julius Caesar [Gaius Julius Caesar] (100–44 B.C.)

    When lilacs last in the dooryard bloomed
    And the great star early drooped in the western sky in the night,
    I mourned, and yet shall mourn with ever-returning spring.
    Ever-returning spring, trinity sure to me you bring,
    Lilac blooming perennial and drooping star in the west,
    And thought of him I love.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
