Summary

This quote highlights the paradoxical nature of war. While it can ignite a sense of enthusiasm and a feeling of unity among people, it also inevitably gives rise to a counter-reaction. In the midst of conflict, people may come together and rally behind a common cause, finding solace in their shared experience. However, war also brings destruction, loss, and suffering, leading individuals and communities to question the initial excitement and unity, and often fueling opposition and resistance against its repercussions.
