Famous quotes containing the words return, peacetime and/or duties:
“The future of humanity is uncertain, even in the most prosperous countries, and the quality of life deteriorates; and yet I believe that what is being discovered about the infinitely large and infinitely small is sufficient to absolve this end of the century and millennium.

—Primo Levi (19191987)
“The man who gets drunk in peacetime is a coward. The man who gets drunk in wartime goes on being a coward.”
