He Was Old And Wise, Which Meant

To Make War Upon Rebellion Is Messy And Slow, Like Eating Soup With A Knife.

It Is Difficult To Keep Quiet When Everything Is Being Done Wrong, But The Less You Lose Your Temper The Greater Your Advantage. Also Then You Will Not Go Mad Yourself.

I Could Write For Hours On The Lustfulness Of Moving Swiftly.

The Dreamers Of The Day Are Dangerous... For They May Act Their Dream With Open Eyes, To Make It Possible.

Yet When We Achieved, And The New World Dawned, The Old Men Came Out Again And Took Our Victory To Remake It In The Likeness Of The Former World They Knew. Youth Could Win, But Had Not Learned To Keep: And Was Pitiably Weak Against Age. We Stammered That We Had Worked For A New Heaven And A New Earth, And They Thanked Us Kindly And Made Their Peace.
