About This Quote
The lines from this poem are really powerful and the way the author describes how we should view war and peace is both inspiring and challenging. The very first line of the poem states that millions cheer the warriors, while the one who stands for peace is ridiculed and shamed. Both sides that engage in war should be praised for their contributions to society, but they should not be celebrated. They should be made to feel ashamed of their actions and taught a lesson about what they have done wrong.
