Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    “The fact that women in the home have shut themselves away from the thought and life of the world has done much to retard progress. We fill the world with the children of 20th century A.D. fathers and 20th century B.C. mothers.”
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)

    “The more prosperous and settled a nation, the more readily it tends to think of war as a regrettable accident; to nations less fortunate the chance of war presents itself as a possible bountiful friend.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
