A man said to the universe, "Sir, I exist."
"However," replied the universe, "the fact has not created in me a sense of obligation."-- Stephan Crane ("War is Kind," 1899)
Nothing true is popular, and nothing popular is true.
It's a joke. Like the funny kind, but different.
On an occasion of this kind it becomes more than a moral duty to speak one's mind. It becomes a pleasure.-- Oscar Wilde
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
As long as war is regarded as wicked, it will always have its fascination. When it is looked upon as vulgar, it will cease to be popular.-- Oscar Wilde
