Don't know who said this originally but it is an excellent summary...
War is a place where young people who don't know each other and don't hate each other, kill each other, based on decisions made by old people who know each other and hate each other, but don't kill each other

Words of wisdom from JRR Tolkien 4/4
It's like in the great stories. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end...because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. JRR Tolkien
