Famous quotes containing the words war i, world and/or war:

“War is not a life: it is a situation,
One which may neither be ignored nor accepted.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“There is nothing in the world so enjoyable as a thorough-going monomania.”
—Agnes Repplier (1858–1950)

“Not marble nor the gilded monuments
Of princes shall outlive this powerful rime;
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone, besmeared with sluttish time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
And broils root out the work of masonry,
Nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
The living record of your memory.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
