Famous quotes containing the words years, war and/or peace:

    Sam Tostin: You know I spent a lot of years disliking women. But I don’t dislike you.
    Major Hayward: Don’t you?
    Sam Tostin: You’re different. You’re not a woman. You’re more than that. You’re a mechanic.
    Stanley Shapiro (1925–1990)

    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)

    All you that kiss my Lady Peace at home.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
