The surest way to prevent war is not to fear it.

Summary

This quote suggests that instead of harboring fear and anxiety about the possibility of war, it is better to confront it directly and without trepidation. By detaching ourselves from the fear of war, we can approach conflict prevention with a clear and rational mindset. It implies that fear and apprehension may inadvertently contribute to the occurrence of war by limiting our ability to make informed decisions and address the root causes of conflicts. Thus, by having the courage to face the possibility of war head-on, we increase our chances of preventing it from happening.
