Bombing of Dresden in World War II

Famous quotes containing the words bombing, world and/or war:

    Did all of us feel interested in bombing buildings only when the men we slept with were urging us on?
    Jane Alpert (b. 1947)

    You need an infinite stretch of time ahead of you to start to think, infinite energy to make the smallest decision. The world is getting denser. The immense number of useless projects is bewildering. Too many things have to be put in to balance up an uncertain scale. You can’t disappear anymore. You die in a state of total indecision.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    We used to wonder where war lived, what it was that made it so vile. And now we realize that we know where it lives, that it is inside ourselves.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
