About This Quote
War would end if the dead could return. If the dead could be brought back to life and join the living again, then there would be no war. As it stands now, war is a senseless and brutal way for people to settle their differences. If we could bring those who have died back to life and they could see how much we’ve changed since they’ve been gone, surely they’d want us to stop fighting. They’d see that we’re good people and that we can work it out.
