About This Quote

“Of course he was afraid of war. Only fools are not. Anaxantis was no fool. He was fully prepared to fight, but only as a last resort.” When Anaxantis heard about the war, he knew he had to do something to stop it.

He knew that if the war did start, the people of Marleybone would lose everything they loved and value. The war would destroy not only their community but also their way of life. “Fools” are people who believe that they can get away with doing whatever they want without consequence or risk to themselves or others.

They are not prepared to be strong for what they believe in because they assume it will never come to them because there is no proof that it will happen.
