Famous quotes containing the words world and/or war:
“We admire a woman for the courage to show herself to the world as she is, and in the end it’s the courage we find attractive.”
—New Yorker (April 30, 1990)
“But, after the war was over, just think what came to pass—
A letter, sir; and the two were safe back in the old Bluegrass.
The lad had got across the border, riding Kentucky Belle;
And Kentuck she was thriving, and fat, and hearty, and well;
He cared for her, and kept her, nor touched her with whip or spur:
Ah! we’ve had many horses, but never a horse like her!”
—Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)
