About This Quote
If we go back to ancient Greece and ancient Rome, we will find that people were living peaceful and prosperous lives. Those who lived in peace and prosperity were the ones who had seen the end of war; those who had not seen the end of war were the ones who had yet to live. The only ones who saw the end of war were those who had already died.
