I've read a lot of war writing, even World War I writing, the British war poetry of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, Robert Graves's memoir 'Goodbye to All That', and a civilian memoir, 'Testament of Youth', by Vera Brittain.
More quotes and aphorisms
The fact that I can plant a seed...I believe that prayer is our powerful contact...Nothing is more dangerous than a friend...Our best thoughts come from others...I'm really just looking for an excuse to get in shape...Colonialism subdues in many dulcet guises...
