No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man's front embraces the whole universe.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
War remains the decisive human failure.
War is something of man's own fostering, and if all mankind renounces it, then it is no longer there.
War is the greatest failure of mankind.
The failure to dissect the cause of war leaves us open for the next installment.
Getting our military back on stable footing won't happen overnight. We must start this process now, since future engagements are likely and allies are scarce.
War is failure of diplomacy.
Everywhere people are at work to build a better world in which we - and some of the beauty of this world - will be guaranteed to survive. Everywhere they are at war with the forces threatening us and the planet.
The question whether the long effort to put an end to war can succeed without another major convulsion challenges not only our minds but our sense of responsibility.
Wars will remain while human nature remains. I believe in my soul in cooperation, in arbitration; but the soldier's occupation we cannot say is gone until human nature is gone.
If men do not now succeed in abolishing war, civilization and mankind are doomed.
