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."

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.
