"Another attitude to war has something tragical in it. There are men who maintain that the love for peace and the inevitability of war form a hideous contradiction, and that such is the fate of man. These are most gifted and sensitive men, who see and realize all the horror and imbecility and cruelty of war, but through some strange perversion of mind neither see, nor seek, to find any way out of this position, and seem to take pleasure in teasing the wound by dwelling on the desperate position of humanity."
-Leo Tolstoy, from his book: The Kingdom of God is within You.
