All That I Know I Learned After

It Is Easier To Make War Than To Make Peace.

A Man Who Waits To Believe In Action Before Acting Is Anything You Like, But He's Not A Man Of Action. It Is As If A Tennis Player Before Returning A Ball Stopped To Think About His Views Of The Physical And Mental Advantages Of Tennis. You Must Act As You Breathe.

On September 17, 1914, Erzberger, The Well-known German Statesman, An Eminent Member Of The Catholic Party, Wrote To The Minister Of War, General Von Falkenhayn, "we Must Not Worry About Committing An Offence Against The Rights Of Nations Nor About Violating The Laws Of Humanity. Such Feelings Today Are Of Secondary Importance"? A Month Later, On October 21, 1914, He Wrote In Der Tag, "if A Way Was Found Of Entirely Wiping Out The Whole Of London It Would Be More Humane To Employ It Than To Allow The Blood Of A Single German Soldier To Be Shed On The Battlefield!"

Not To Be A Socialist At Twenty Is Proof Of Want Of Heart; To Be One At Thirty Is Proof Of Want Of Head.

A Man Who Has To Be Convinced To Act Before He Acts Is Not A Man Of Action. You Must Act As You Breathe.
