War Memorials

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or memorials:

“I do not mean to exclude altogether the idea of patriotism. I know it exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest. But I will venture to assert, that a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be aided by a prospect of interest, or some reward.”
—George Washington (1732–1799)

“Our public monuments are memorials to the Enlightenment.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
