Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes, War Quotes, Book Quotes

Ironically, the single thing that has strengthened Iran over the last several years has been the war in Iraq. Iraq was Iran's mortal enemy. That was cleared away.

When envoys are sent with compliments in their mouths, it is a sign that the enemy wishes for a truce.
