Revolutionary War Statesman

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or statesman:

    I really don’t think this war will end soon. We are completely aware of the difficulties, no food or fuel, the danger, but we want to be stronger than all that. With each child, we are fighting back with our love of life.
    Tina Bajraktarebic (b. 1965)

    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)
