Famous quotes containing the words post and/or war:

    My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital. I sometimes discuss the application of a compress or a wisp of hay under a broken limb, but not the bearing and merits of a political movement. I make gruel—not speeches; I write letters home for wounded soldiers, not political addresses.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    It is inhuman to continue a war which could easily be ended.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
