Wars Quotes
-
It's fear of the unknown. The unknown is what it is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that-it's all illusion. Unknown is what it is. Accept that it's unknown and it's plain sailing. Everything is unknown-then you're ahead of the game. That's what it is. Right?

Will Durant

We've gotten into this - this mindset of fighting politically correct wars. There is no such thing as a politically correct war.

And - and what we have to remember is we want to utilize the tremendous intellect that we have in the military to win wars.
Benjamin Carson
