Holy Wars

Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or wars:

    I myself saw furious with blood
    Neoptolemus, at his side the black Atridae,
    Hecuba and the hundred daughters, Priam
    Cut down, his filth drenching the holy fires.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.
