Quote #5 on Political Struggle Quotes >> War and Imperialism
“Frequently has it [the government] contracted alliances with other governments or made combinations to carry on war and shed blood; frequently has it called on the whole nation to combine when the object has been to plunder and massacre the unoffending subjects of some neighboring state and frequently have such combinations had heaped on them all the epithets of the vocabulary of glory.”
