If you are unwilling to defend your right to your own lives, then you are merely like mice trying to argue with owls. You think their ways are wrong. They think you are dinner.

no army has ever marched into battle thinking that the Creator had sided with their enemy.

Over the millennia the seed of stories planted in the fertile soil of bits and scraps of facts was watered by wishes and began to take root and grow. Eventually, a bountiful fruit of rumors burst forth, to be spread on the wind of whispers that said we hid a fabled hoard of gold. Nothing could convince the believers that it was not true. The truth does not glitter for these people like gold does.

Fools who won't see the truth are deadly.

History is rarely made by reasonable men.

I'd rather look a fool than be right and fail to act.

Dancing with death meant being committed to killing, committed with your heart and soul.
