Quote by Aristotle

We make war that we may live in peace.

We make war that we may live in peace.

Summary

This quote highlights the paradoxical nature of war and peace. It suggests that sometimes war is necessary to obtain peace. By engaging in conflict and overcoming adversaries, nations hope to establish a lasting peace and ensure their own safety and security. This notion is often seen in historical contexts, where wars have been fought to protect and preserve the peace and well-being of a nation or its citizens, although the ultimate goal is to live in a state of peace rather than continuous warfare.

And what do Democrats stand for, if they are so ready to defame concerned citizens as the 'mob' - a word betraying a Marie Antoinette delusion of superiority to ordinary mortals. I thought my party was populist, attentive to the needs and wishes of those outside the power structure. And as a product of the 1960s, I thought the Democratic party was passionately committed to freedom of thought and speech.
