Famous quotes containing the words holy and/or war:
“And I said,
This holy concern for the truth
no one worries about it except liars.
And God was bored.
He turned on his side
like an opium eater
and slept.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“[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 (18741946)
