Famous quotes containing the words inciting and/or event:
“One sparrow is worth a thousand gulls,
When it sings. The gull sits on chimney-tops.
He mocks the guinea, challenges
The crow, inciting various modes.
The sparrow requites one, without intent.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now.”
