World War II

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    all must die.

    Only a sweet and virtuous soul,
    Like seasoned timber, never gives;
    But though the whole world turn to coal,
    Then chiefly lives.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    But no, he only said,
    “Well, there’s the storm. That says I must go on.
    That wants me as a war might if it came.
    Ask any man.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
