Prophetic words

"Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events. "

Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)

Winston Churchill was one of the smartest people ever. Evidenced by just how many people quote this man. If only he was still around to speak this kind of wisdom to world leaders today.
