War II Army

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or army:

“A war between Europeans is a civil war.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

“Private property is held sacred in all good governments, and particularly in our own. Yet shall the fear of invading it prevent a general from marching his army over a cornfield or burning a house which protects the enemy? A thousand other instances might be cited to show that laws must sometimes be silent when necessity speaks.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
