War Logs

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or logs:

    “Those wars are unjust which are undertaken without provocation. For only a war waged for revenge or defense can be just.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    “His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
