Quote #1 on Political Struggle Quotes >> War and The Masses
“A people at war have become in the most literal sense obedient, respectful, trustful children again, full of that naïve faith in the all-wisdom and all-power of the adult who takes care of them, imposes his mild but necessary rule upon them and in whom they lose their responsibility and anxieties.”
Source: "War is the Health of the State," by Randolph Bourne, 1918.
