Martha Gellhorn Quotes
War happens to people, one by one. That is really all I have to say and it seems to me I have been saying it forever. Unless they are immediate victims, the majority of mankind behaves as if war was an act of God which could not be prevented; or they behave as if war elsewhere was none of their business. It would be a bitter cosmic joke if we destroy ourselves due to atrophy of the imagination.

The numerous evils to which individual persons are exposed are due to the defects existing in the persons themselves.

The malady is ludicrous, sad, excruciating and, above all, instantly diagnosable.
