#War

“Emotion leads one to hate... and hate leads one to conflict and war.”

“The death of a culture, is the death of a people.”

“In a conflict between creatures that are fundamentally the same, defeat is equavalent to annihilation.”

“Ah... what a beautiful sound. It doesn't get any better than that. I can feel it deep in my bones, like a part of me I never noticed before. That sound is an extension of my being. And this land - this land that's governed by death - I will paint it red with this shard of destruction.”

“War brings death. And wounds and pain to both sides. There's nothing harder to accept, than the deaths of those you love. So you believe they could never die. Especially those who haven't known war.”

“Humans can possibly exist without actually having to fight. But, many of us have chosen to fight. For what reason? To protect something? Protect what? Ourselves? The future? If we kill people to protect ourselves and this future, then what sort of future is it, and what will we have become? There is no future for those who have died. And what of those who did the killing? Is happiness to be found in a future that is grasped with blood stained hands? Is that the truth?”

“And there you go. You heard her, Iri. Our Heroic Spirit thinks a battlefield to be something better than Hell. What a joke. It's Hell itself. There is no hope on a battlefield. There is nothing but unspeakable despair. Just a crime we call victory, paid for by the pain of the defeated. But humanity has never recognized this truth. And the reason is that, in every era, a dazzling hero has blinded the people with their legends, and kept them from seeing the evil of bloodshed. True human nature has not advanced a step beyond the Stone Age.”

“Of course, every soldier is prepared to die. But these people aren't just pawns on a chessboard. They all have names, families and feelings in their hearts too. They are all humans who live and bleed. You have the responsibility to ensure their death will not be in vain. No matter what may come, remember this in your naive heart, and be ready to die to fulfill that duty.”

“While we are talking of peace, people are dying.”

“Hughes, just a bit of advice. The soldiers who never shut up about their girls back home... They don't make it.”

“Words alone, can make an entire army withdraw.”

“The world is destined for even greater chaos.”

“If one side was just, it would be called a defense or a suppression. But this is war. And wars happen because both sides are just.”

“The world lies! Thou shalt not commit murder, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not cheat, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife. All of these are lies! Mere illusions and nothing more! They don't want to be killed, they don't want to be robbed, using the twin lies of justice and morality, the weak are endeavoring to protect themselves. But the first truth is that the strong devour the weak, so let us feed upon people, upon wealth, upon riches and power! We, at Britannia, shall feast upon the raw flesh of the world itself! We will crush this deception and bring forth the truth! All Hail Britannia!”

“You want to keep everyone from dying? That's naive. It's war. People die.”

“In every time, in every world, the strong polish their fangs while the weak polish their wisdom.”
