I have seen war. I have seen war on land and sea. I have seen blood running from the wounded. I have seen men coughing out their gassed lungs. I have seen the dead in the mud. I have seen cities destroyed. I have seen 200 limping, exhausted men come out of line–the survivors of a regiment of 1, 000 that went forward 48 hours before. I have seen children starving. I have seen the agony of mothers and wives. I hate war. . Franklin D. Roosevelt
