"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned
my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, scince for him
the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should
be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable
love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despiceable an
ignoreable war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so
base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war
is nothing but an act of murder." -- Albert Einstein

receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."

Through the release of atomic energy, our generation has brought into
the world the most revolutionary force since prehistoric man's discovery
of fire. This basic force of the universe cannot be fitted into the outmoded
concept of narrow nationalisms.

For there is no secret and there is no defense; there is no possibility
of control except through the aroused understanding and insistence of the
peoples of the world. We scientists recognise our inescapable responsibility
to carry to our fellow citizens an understanding of atomic energy and its
implication for society. In this lies our only security and our only hope
- we believe that an informed citizenry will act for life and not for death.

A. Einstein, 1947 d.C.

If you are out to describe the truth, leave elegance to the tailor.
