Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce Quote

Year: A period of three hundred and sixty-five disappointments

Peace: In international affairs, a period of cheating between two periods of fighting

Pride breakfasted with plenty, dined with poverty, and supped with infamy

All are architects of fate, working in these walls of time

Time, which antiquates antiquities, and hath an art to make dust of all things, hath yet spared these minor monuments.

And love is something eternal, it changes its aspect but not its foundation.
