    Strange, a few years ago I found such statements endearing and witty, now I find my eyes reflexively rolling.
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
