War Destroys

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or destroys:

    [Veterans] feel disappointed, not about the 1914-1918 war but about this war. They liked that war, it was a nice war, a real war a regular war, a commenced war and an ended war. It was a war, and veterans like a war to be a war. They do.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    The full moon
    cannot gain
    a likeness to your face,
    so god destroys it
    time and again,
    as if to create it
    by some other means.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
