The same can be said of most of the violence we humans have ever committed. ~Gil Bailie

It has become too easy to see that the luckless men of the past lived by mistakes, even absurd beliefs, so we may well fail in a decent respect for them, and forget that historians of the future will point out that we too lived by myths. ~Herbert J. Muller, Freedom in the Western World
