The news is disease in disguise, pretending to be information.
Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind.
For us, the storm has passed. The war is over. And let us never forget those who journeyed into the howling dark, and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure. Sacrifice, an unshakable conviction that their fight, our fight, was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They enabled all of us, and they shall not be forgotten.
I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won or lost a dozen fortunes, killed many men, and loved only one woman, with a passion a flea like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am.
Understanding precedes peace.
Anyone contemplating world war is certifiably insane, no matter how calm they seem.
We've been there on World Wars, it's time for World Party I.
Tank beats ghost. Tank beats hunter. Tank beats everything!
Take calculated risks. That is quite different from being rash.
I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
If warring is human, then why not declare a new kind of war: A War of education, love and friendship to win universal human well-being? I propose a brutal conflict against poverty, disease, ignorance, limitations. Imagine the troops, the regimens, the commanders, the soldiers, the discoveries, the heroes, the life!
Party is the opposite of War. Peace is in the middle.
Our true enemies are: ignorance and limitation.
Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.
We're surrounded. That simplifies the problem.
All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us...they can't get away this time.
There is no winning with a person whose goal is to fight.
So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you.
We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and the oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.
