War Douglas

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or douglas:

    When they are not at war they do a little hunting, but spend most of their time in idleness, sleeping and eating. The strongest and most warlike do nothing. They vegetate, while the care of hearth and home and fields is left to the women, the old and the weak. Strange inconsistency of temperament, which makes the same men lovers of sloth and haters of tranquility.
    Tacitus (c. 55–c. 120)

    If you want to know about a man you can find out an awful lot by looking at who he married.
    —Kirk Douglas (b. 1916)
