It is well that war is so terrible,
otherwise we should grow too fond of it.
We have been travelling through a cloud.
The sky has been dark ever since the war began.
The power to wage war is the power
to wage war successfully.
It is not only the living who are killed in war.
The most successful war
seldom pays for its losses.
We are never truly at war, nor completely at peace.
Our lives revolve always anticipating the other.
