War Is, We Have Been Forced To

Culture, With Its Processes And Functions, Is A Subject Upon Which We Need All The Enlightenment We Can Achieve, And There Is No Direction In Which We Can Seek With Greater Reward Than In The Facts Of Pre-literate Societies.

The Tough-minded ... Respect Difference. Their Goal Is A World Made Safe For Differences, Where The United States May Be American To The Hilt Without Threatening The Peace Of The World, And France May Be France, And Japan May Be Japan On The Same Conditions.

The Japanese Are, To The Highest Degree, Both Aggressive And Unaggressive, Both Militaristic And Aesthetic, Both Insolent And Polite, Rigid And Adaptable, Submissive And Resentful Of Being Pushed Around, Loyal And Treacherous, Brave And Timid, Conservative And Hospitable To New Ways.

If We Justify War, It Is Because All Peoples Always Justify The Traits Of Which They Find Themselves Possessed, Not Because War Will Bear An Objective Examination Of Its Merits

Our Faith In The Present Dies Out Long Before Our Faith In The Future.
