[America's soldiers] are being treated … like toys a rich kid got for Christmas. - Kurt Vonnegut

There was not a country in the world that had not fought a battle in the war of all Earth against the invaders from Mars.
All was forgiven.
All living things were brothers, and all dead things were even more so.

It is always pitiful when any human being falls into a condition hardly more respectable than that of an animal. How much more pitiful it is when the person who falls has had all the advantages!

I really wonder what gives us the right to wreck this poor planet of ours.
