“Every war is different. Every war is the same.”
“Every war is ironic because every war is worse than expected. Every war constitutes an irony of situation because its means are so melodramatically disproportionate to its presumed ends.”
“To a mankind that recognizes the equality of man everywhere, every war becomes a civil war.”
“Every war has turning points and every person too.”
“All men seek happiness. This is without exception. Whatever different means they employ, they all tend to this end. The cause of some going to war, and of others avoiding it, is the same desire in both, attended with different views. The will never takes the least step but to this object. This is the motive of every action of every man, even of those who hang themselves.”
“Every true artist is at war with the world.”
