God Told

Famous quotes containing the words god and/or told:

    Unless they are immediate victims, the majority of mankind behaves as if war was an act of God which could not be prevented; or they behave as if war elsewhere was none of their business. It would be a bitter cosmic joke if we destroy ourselves due to atrophy of the imagination.
    Martha Gellhorn (b. 1908)

    [On being told that “every woman should stand with bared head before Susan B. Anthony”:] Yes, and every man as well.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)
