Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    “I thought when I was a young man that I would conquer the world with truth. I thought I would lead an army greater than Alexander ever dreamed of. Not to conquer nations, but to liberate mankind. With truth. With the golden sound of the Word. But only a few of them heard. Only a few of you understood. The rest of you put on black and sat in chapel.”
    —Philip Dunne (1908–1992)

    “Whoever lights the torch of war in Europe can wish for nothing but chaos.”
    —Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)
