There are no makers of peace because the making of peace is at least as costly as the making of war - at least as exigent.

Because we want the peace with half a heart and half a life and will, the war, of course, continues, because the waging of war, by its nature, is total - but the waging of peace, by our own cowardice, is partial.

Start with the impossible. Proceed calmly towards the improbable. No worry, there are at least five exits.

Every nation-state tends towards the imperial - that is the point. Through banks, armies, secret police, propaganda, courts and jails, treaties, taxes, laws and orders, myths of civil obedience, assumptions of civic virtue at the top.
