Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    “The rhetorician would deceive his neighbours,
    The sentimentalist himself; while art
    Is but a vision of reality.
    What portion in the world can the artist have
    Who has awakened from the common dream
    But dissipation and despair?”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Armageddon. The slaughter of humanity. An atomic war no one wanted, but which no one had the wisdom to avoid.”
    —Edward L. Bernds (b. 1911)
