SHAKESPEARE ON WAR AND PEACE:
"In Peace there is nothing so Becomes a Man
As Modest Stillness and Humility:
But when the blast of War blows in our ears,
Then imitate the Action of the Tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage
Then Lend the Eye a Terrible Aspect"
(Henry V 3.1.40-7)
