Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:

    “The whole world is an omen and a sign. Why look so wistfully in a corner? Man is the Image of God. Why run after a ghost or a dream? The voice of divination resounds everywhere and runs to waste unheard, unregarded, as the mountains echo with the bleatings of cattle.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “But no, he only said,
    “Well, there’s the storm. That says I must go on.
    That wants me as a war might if it came.
    Ask any man.””
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
