H.G. Wells
“This isn't a war," said the artilleryman. "It never was a war, any more than there's war between man and ants.”
H.G. Wells, The War of the Worlds
tags: war

Herman Melville
“In glades they meet skull after skull/Where pine-cones lay--the rusted gun,/Green shoes full of bones, the mouldering coat/And cuddled-up skeleton;/And scores of such. Some start as in dreams,/And comrades lost bemoan:/By the edge of those wilds Stonewall had charged--/But the Year and the Man were gone. ("The Armies of the Wilderness")”
Herman Melville

H.G. Wells
“No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.”
H.G. Wells, The War of the Worlds

Ishmael Beah
“Some people tried to hurt us to protect themselves, their family and communities...This was one of the consequences of civil war. People stopped trusting each other, and every stranger became an enemy. Even people who knew you became extremely careful about how they related or spoke to you.”
Ishmael Beah, A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier

Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy
“To a mankind that recognizes the equality of man everywhere, every war becomes a civil war.”
Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy, Out of Revolution: Autobiography of Western Man
