In peace, sons bury their fathers. In war, fathers bury their sons.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
War violates the natural order of things, in which children bury their parents; in war parents bury their children.
A war is justified if you're willing to send your son. If you're not willing to send your son, then how do you send someone else's?
Every father and son have conflicts.
Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look on them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.
Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.
Victory has a hundred fathers but defeat is an orphan.
Virtually every civilized society today holds sacred the right to peaceably bury their dead.
In the grave should be buried the prejudices and passions born of conflict. Charity should hold the scales in which are weighed the deeds of men.
They say in the grave there is peace, and peace and the grave are one and the same.
A professional soldier understands that war means killing people, war means maiming people, war means families left without fathers and mothers.
