Benito Mussolini1 quote
War alone brings up to its highest tension all human energy and puts the stamp of nobility upon the peoples who have the courage to face it. — Benito Mussolini · 1932Helmuth von Moltke the Elder1 quote
Eternal peace is a dream, and not even a beautiful one, and war is a link in God's world order. In him, the noblest virtues of man, courage and renunciation, devotion to duty and willingness to sacrifice, unfold with the institution of life. Without the war, the world would become bogged down in materialism. — Helmuth von Moltke the Elder · 1880
