Post War - Philosophy V

"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)

"The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his."

Default In my minds eye I can see him saying this like it was yesterday





"If you can't see 'em , you can't shoot 'em and you can't see 'em laying on the ground."

2nd Lt. Dan Burgess Yarbrough ( 1949 - 1969 )



Lt. Dan was a platoon leader with my company.He was KIA just seconds after uttering these words.
