Friends, 

What is a war? When can it be worthwhile and noble? 

This quotation opens an article entitled "The Greatest of All Wars": 
 
"The outer wars are but elongated shadows of the war within. The cancerous disease of thoughtlessness is eating away the eye of spirit. Involved in this tragedy, man fears and declaims about the iniquity of neighbours and kin; all the while the trouble is within himself. He is suffering from the delirium tremens of consciousness, having drunk to the full of selfishness; pride rules his will; egotism energizes his conduct."  —Thus Have I Heard
