World Wars

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or wars:

    The world ‘s a bubble, and the life of man
    Less then a span:
    In his conception wretched, from the womb
    So to the tomb;
    Curst from his cradle, and brought up to years
    With cares and fears.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    Now his wars on God begin;
    At stroke of midnight God shall win.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
