The '50s in general are written off as a boring decade following the turmoil of the Second World War and its immediate aftermath - the postwar Labour government, the cold war, the arrival of the New Look in fashion, etc. But I remember it as a very exciting time - a pioneering, rule-breaking time, especially for the young. -Lynne Reid Banks War

So, I created these creatures called The Frightened Ones which in the film you see do have mask like kind of heads and they run beneath the ground to hide. Which is what in fact we did during the war. -Gerald Scarfe War
If you want to fight a war on drugs, sit down at your own kitchen table and talk to your own children. -Barry McCaffrey War
I can not believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war. -Eleanor Roosevelt War
