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

    “... liberal intellectuals ... tend to have a classical theory of politics, in which the state has a monopoly of power; hoping that those in positions of authority may prove to be enlightened men, wielding power justly, they are natural, if cautious, allies of the “establishment.””
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “The world is made of sugar and dirt.”
    —Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    “The dead have been awakened—shall I sleep?
    The world’s at war with tyrants—shall I crouch?
    The harvest’s ripe—and shall I pause to reap?
    I slumber not; the thorn is in my couch;
    Each day a trumpet soundeth in mine ear,
    Its echo in my heart.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
