Sweden During World War II

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    You need an infinite stretch of time ahead of you to start to think, infinite energy to make the smallest decision. The world is getting denser. The immense number of useless projects is bewildering. Too many things have to be put in to balance up an uncertain scale. You can’t disappear anymore. You die in a state of total indecision.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    My curse on plays
    That have to be set up in fifty ways,
    On the day’s war with every knave and dolt,
    Theater business, management of men.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
