There is a generation of people who would largely say, “I’m not feelin’ it today, Sarge. Get somebody else to charge that hill.”

The world wouldn't have suffered under Nazism and Communism if a bunch of folks had had that attitude in 1916.

I had to think about that for a minute. Yeah, you’re right.

A quote from Hermann Goering (Hitler’s right-hand man):

“Naturally, the common people don’t want war ... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.”
