Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of it's laborers, the genius of it's scientists, the hops of it's children.

"The aim of flattery is to soothe and encourage us by assuring us of the
truth of an opinion we have already formed about ourselves."
