Famous quotes containing the words war and/or begins:
“As a war in years of peace
Or in war an armistice
Or a father’s death, just so
Our parting was not visualized....”

“One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business; on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow.”
—Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855)
