War Quotes
-
The bipolar world of the Cold War is history. The new world order, however, is not the One World dreamed of by Wilsonian idealists.

Leave in its track the toiling plough;
The rifle and the bayonet-blade
For arms like yours were fitter now;
And let the hands that ply the pen
Quit the light task, and learn to wield
The horseman's crooked brand, and rein
The charger on the battle-field.
