War
---
"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my
contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal
cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away
with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable
love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and
ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an
action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing
but an act of murder."
-- Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
