"Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy." "I have gained this from philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law."

"A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side." Top 5 quotes from War & Peace "Warmaking doesn't stop warmaking. If it did, our problems would have stopped millennia ago." "Without a doubt, psychological warfare has proven its right to a place of dignity in our military arsenal." "A tyrant is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader." "If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable; and let it come! I repeat, Sir, let it come!" "It is only necessary to make war with five things: with the maladies of the body, with the ignorances of the mind, with the passions of the body, with the seditions of the city, with the discords of families."
