War Douglas

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or douglas:

    I do not mean to exclude altogether the idea of patriotism. I know it exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest.

    George Washington (1732–1799)

    Many a man who thinks to found a home discovers that he has merely opened a tavern for his friends.
