People always make war when they say they love peace.

Loud peace propaganda makes war seem imminent.

The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters - not to talk in armies and nations and numbers - but to track it home.

Life is a travelling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken.

Men and women should stay apart, till their hearts grow gentle towards one another again.
