Nathaniel Philbrick Quotes
There Are Two Possible Responses To A World Suddenly Gripped By Terror And Contention. There Is The Moseley Way: Get Mad And Get Even. But As The Course Of King Philip's War Proved, Unbridled Arrogance And Fear Only Feed The Flames Of Violence. Then There Is The (Benjamin) Church Way. Instead Of Killing Him, Try To Bring Him Around To Your Way Of Thinking. First And Foremost, Treat Him Like A Human Being. For Church, Success In War Was About Coercion Rather Than Slaughter, And In This He Anticipated The Welcoming, Transformative Beast That Eventually Became, Once The Declaration Of Independence And The Constitution Were In Place, The United States.
