"The use of [the atomic bombs] at Hiroshima and Nagasaki was of no material assistance in our war against Japan. The Japanese were already defeated and ready to surrender because of the effective sea blockade and the successful bombing with conventional weapons...

I was not taught to make war in that fashion, and wars cannot be won by destroying women and children."

“No true reform has ever come to pass Unchallenged by a liar and an ass.”
