"Hence jarring sectaries may learn
Their real int'rest to discern;
That brother should not war with brother,
And worry and devour each other."
William Cowper (1731-1800)
"Now tell us all about the war,
And what they fought each other for."
Robert Southey (1774-1843)
"Above all, this book is not concerned with Poetry.
The subject of it is War, and the Pity of War.
The Poetry is in the pity."
Wilfred Owen (1893-1918)
"Hobbes clearly proves, that every creature
Lives in a state of war by nature."
Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)
"From jigging veins of rhyming mother-wits,
And such conceits as clownage keeps in pay,
We'll lead you to the stately tents of war."
Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593)
"For all we have and are,
For all our children's fate,
Stand up and take the war.
The Hun is at the gate!"
Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)
