I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.
War is an instrument entirely inefficient toward redressing wrong, and multiplies, instead of indemnifying losses.
It doesn't take a hero to order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who goes into battle.
In war, the heroes always outnumber the soldiers ten to one.
