Salvation From Ruins~


From the fires of Ares, unto the Embrase of Eros!...






Regret for the things you DID can be tempered by time...it is regret for the things you did NOT do that is inconsolable.




Make Love, not war!




The light of knowledge shining into the darkness of ignorance
 το φως της γνώσης που ρίχνεται στο σκοτάδι της άγνοιας
Lux lucis scientia rutilus in obscurum ignarus




     



The right path from the start~
Lover and Beloved, Alike and Equal.

Do not waste good iron for nails or good men for soldiers.


---Ancient Chinese Proverb

Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put and end to mankind.  War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys that same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
JFK

More than an end to war, we want an end to the beginnings of all wars.
 ---FDR

To call war the soil of courage and virtue is like calling debauchery the soil of love.
Zu Krieg zu nennen den Boden des Mutes und des Vorzugs ist wie das Nennen von Ausschweifung den Boden der Liebe
---Old German Proverb

In the arts of life man invents nothing; but in the arts of death he outdoes Nature herself, and produces by chemistry and machinery all the slaughter of plague, pestilence, and famine.
George Bernard Shaw

War -- what a waist of time. It's all about great achievements for the very few but hideous losses for the very many.
---Anonymous

Morality is contraband in war.
नैतिकता के युद्ध में वर्जित है.
Mahatma Gandhi

War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it.
Oorlog is heerlijk om mensen die nog geen enkele ervaring van.
Desiderius Erasmus

If any question why we died, tell them, because our fathers lied.
Rudyard Kipling

When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die.
Quand les riches font la guerre, c'est les pauvres qui meurent.
Jean-Paul Sartre
