Famous quotes containing the words wars and/or war:

    It took nine years, and a great depression, and two wars ending in defeat, and one surrender without war, to break my faith in the benign power of the press. Gradually I came to realize that people will more readily swallow lies than truth, as if the taste of lies was homey, appetizing: a habit.
    Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)

    Of course in war all madnesses come out in a man, that is the fault of war not of a man or a nation.
    Frieda Lawrence (1879–1956)
