Famous quotes containing the words japanese, war and/or fan:

    In fact, the whole of Japan is a pure invention. There is no such country, there are no such people.... The Japanese people are ... simply a mode of style, an exquisite fancy of art.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    There is hardly such a thing as a war in which it makes no difference who wins. Nearly always one side stands more or less for progress, the other side more or less for reaction.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    Anyone with any real blood in his or her ... veins cannot help being a fan ....Being a true American and being a fan are synonymous.
    Lulu Glaser (1874–1958)
