Quote #4 on Political Struggle Quotes >> War and Hate
“...what they call "peace" is, in fact, only an armed truce -- an interval between two outbreaks of hostility -- during which, so far from being at genuine peace with their neighbors, they are occupied in speculating where the next attack shall be delivered, or, rather (for they love to depict themselves as always standing on pious self-defense against the wanton aggressiveness of others), how they shall repel the next attack from abroad.”
