"Of all the enemies to public liberty war is,
perhaps, the most to be dreaded
because it comprises and develops the germ of every other.
War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts & taxes...
known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few
... No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare."
