1 " A democracy which makes or even effectively prepares for modern, scientific war must necessarily cease to be democratic. No country can be really well prepared for modern war unless it is governed by a tyrant, at the head of a highly trained and perfectly obedient bureaucracy. "
― Aldous Huxley , Ends and Means
2 " War is chaos. It always has been. But technology makes it worse. It changes the fear. At the Institute, I feared men. I feared what Titus and the Jackal could do to me. You see death coming there and can at least struggle against it. Here you don't have such luxury. Modern war is fearing the air, the shadows, fearing the silence. Death will com and I won't even see it. ~Darrow "
― Pierce Brown , Golden Son (Red Rising Saga, #2)
3 " A nation's ability to fight a modern war is as good as its technological ability. "
4 " The tragedy of modern war is that the young men die fighting each other - instead of their real enemies back home in the capitals. "
― Edward Abbey
