 We make war that we may live in peace

Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle; love is a war; love is a growing up.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling, which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, is often the means of their regeneration.
