Dear, Missus, Mister - I beg you never to give thoughts to war, in no way, not to work for it, not by writing nor by reading about it nor by looking at the pictures nor on the television about it. Not in any way ever, at all. Not by being a soldier, sailor, airman, work in factory or above all at atom bombs. Above all at atom bombs. No obligation for this, dear fellow creature. Signed Your Fellow Creature.''P.S., ' said Gerald slowly, without turning from the window, 'If we all do this, we shall succeed. Stella Gibbons
About This Quote

World War II was a massive social and political upheaval. We can all thank this war for bringing us the freedom of the United States of America. However, we must also remember that this war took a heavy toll on humanity. It cost millions of lives, destroyed cities and ruined the economies of many nations. It is not something we should ever want to go through again.
