Boria Sax Quotes

Those Who Romanticize War Often Like To Think Of It, At Least In Areas Of Mortal Peril, As Nothing But "guts And Glory." Those Who Are Inclined To Pacifism, By Contrast, Often Think Of It As An Unbroken Sequence Of Horrors. Actually, However, People In Wartime Still Fall In Love, Do The Laundry, Worry About Pimples, Drink Beer, And Do Most Of The Same Things That They Do In Times Of Peace. The Patterns Of Daily Life May Be Mundane, But They Are Remarkably Tenacious.
But, While People In Wartime Still Go About Their Daily Routines, The Prospect Of Imminent Death Can Give Even Quotidian Chores A Heightened Intensity. When The First Bombs Were Dropped On London In Autumn Of 1940, The Population Bore Adversity Better Than Almost Anybody Had Expected. The Danger Was Mixed With Excitement, And The Terror Had A Sort Of Apocalyptic Magnificence.
