"A war doesn't merely kill off a few thousand or a few hundred thousand young men. It kills off something in a people that can never be brought back. And if a people goes through enough wars, pretty soon all that's left is the brute, the creature that we -you and I and others like us - have brought up from the slime."

"The pain of losing something precious -be it earthly happiness or material wealth- can be forgotten over time. But our lost opportunities never leave us, and every time they come back to haunt us, we ache. Or perhaps what haunt us is that nagging thought that things might have turned out differently. Because without that thought, we would put it down to fate and accept it."
