Revolutionary War Statesman

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or statesman:

    We make war that we may live in peace.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    A statesman is an easy man,
    He tells his lies by rote;
    A journalist makes up his lies
    And takes you by the throat;
    So stay at home and drink your beer
    And let the neighbours vote.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
