For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are taken with the snare, like them are the children of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them." - Ecclesiastes 9:11-12

"God created war so that [humans] would learn geography." - Mark Twain

"For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward, for the memory of them is forgotten. Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy is already perished; neither have they any more forever a portion in all that is done under the sun." - Ecclesiastes 9:5-6

"The world has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we do about peace, more about killing than we know about living." - Gen. Omar Bradley
