It's always a mere handful of men who account for the masses, and nothing great, alas, has ever emerged from peace, neither a nation- as Amar has just pointed out- nor a great work. Peace has always been the reign of mediocrities, and pacifism the bleating of a herd of sheep which allow themselves to be led to the slaughter-house with defending themselves.
