Einstein On War
Opening Salvo

By Naomi Toy And Michael Beach
The Daily Telegraph
9-24-1

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my
contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the
spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be
done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable
love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable an
ignorable war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base
an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is
nothing but an act of murder."

-- Albert Einstein
