Conflict, when mismanaged, destroys.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Conflict, when handled correctly, strengthens.
I don't like conflict.
You never want conflict. But sometimes conflict is inevitable.
Conflict grows out of ignorance and suspicion.
Conflict is very much a state of mind. If you're not in that state of mind, it doesn't bother you.
Conflict happens. People aren't happy all of the time.
Conflicts are never caused in any simple way by identity, culture or economics. Where resources are scarce, or there are strong historical memories of conflict, small events are more likely to inflame passions.
The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists.
The real conflict, if any exists, is between two industrial systems.
Conflict cannot survive without your participation.
