War Quotes
Like as a wise man in time of peace prepares for war.
George Washington
People would always say horror movies always thrive during times of war; that's just what people would say. And I don't know if they thrived during World War II or Vietnam, but I thought that's kind of strange, why would that happen.

Henry Rollins
