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

    “The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters—not to talk in armies and nations and numbers—but to track it home.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “Lord, Lord, how this world is given to lying!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “When they are not at war they do a little hunting, but spend most of their time in idleness, sleeping and eating. The strongest and most warlike do nothing. They vegetate, while the care of hearth and home and fields is left to the women, the old and the weak. Strange inconsistency of temperament, which makes the same men lovers of sloth and haters of tranquility.”
    —Tacitus (c. 55–c. 120)
