Famous quotes containing the words lasting and/or peace:
“With awe, around these silent walks I tread;
These are the lasting mansions of the dead.”
—George Crabbe (1754–1832)
“It must be a peace without victory.... Victory would mean peace forced upon the losers, a victor’s terms imposed upon the vanquished. It would be accepted in humiliation, under duress, at an intolerable sacrifice, and would leave a sting, a resentment, a bitter memory upon which the terms of peace would rest, not permanently, but only as upon quicksand.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
