“Those who have courage and faith shall never perish in misery”
“Those who will not reason, perish in the act. Those who will not act, perish for that reason.”
“Like the Bible say - he who liveth by the sword...shall be stucketh.”
“The professed object of war generally is to preserve liberty and produce a lasting peace: but war never did and never will preserve liberty and produce a lasting peace, for it is a divine decree that all nations who take the sword shall perish with the sword. War is no more adapted to preserve liberty and produce a lasting peace than midnight darkness is to produce noonday light.”
“Crockery broke and fabric frayed. The delicate things I cared about perished, while the hard things like swords survived.”
