- Sometimes the best way to achieve peace is war.
- Do not agree! The more hatred builds up between the two parties, the less possible becomes the world.

The life of each one of you is not just ordinary human life, it represents a message.

In wartime the worst of the dangers is becoming a habit. Especially the habit of most danger.

People themselves cause evil to each other, and God has got nothing to do with it. He made people free. This means that we rejoice or suffer, regardless of our merits or demerits. What a terrible role you want to take to God. Surely you can at least for a moment to assume that those who managed to escape from the Nazis, God loves, and those who failed - hates? No, God does not interfere in our Affairs!

Christian you become in that case, if you believe that Jesus is truly the Son of God, that God was incarnated in him, died and rose again.
For Christians it's already happened, and Jews has yet to happen.
- That's right, Joseph. Christians are people who remember, and Jews - those who still have hope.
- It turns out that Christian is the Jew who stopped to wait?
Yes. And the Jew is the Christian to Jesus.

Don't ask how my mom looked. Is it possible to describe the sun?

While the waiting lasts, you still do not know the joy or agony, ready to jump to who knows where.

I have the pleasure of reading, I read for enjoyment.

From then on the night of the boy heavy, and the days are even harder. He wants to understand. Understand that monster is no different from him except for the humanity that it is the same as he just adopts other solutions. Since then the boy is afraid of himself, he knows that there lived a cruel and bloodthirsty beast, and thinks, as if all his life to keep him in a cage.

No one is in charge of this war. All her victims. Can't see who to shoot. Enemies and comrades find a person only after death. It is above human forces. People invested in the war the full force of his industry, that his metallurgy, but like the sorcerer's apprentice, he no longer has power over the machine that launched. Now steel and fire avenge him, as if by themselves bursting from the bowels of the earth.

It seems to me in this land lived two kinds of monsters: those that think only of themselves, and those that only think of others. In other words, the villains-the villains are selfish and altruistic. Henry belongs to the first category, for your pleasure and success, he puts above all else. However, no matter how malicious he was, he was far from the villain of the second category. The villains are altruistic, they are doing far more evil, for nothing can stop them - neither pleasure nor satisfaction, nor money, nor fame. Why? Because the villains - the altruists don't think about themselves, they go beyond the personal villainy, and reach greater career heights public field. They feel rebuked by the mission, they act - in their eyes - only for the common good, they are convinced that a well-received abolishing freedom, throwing into jail his opponents and even shooting them. They don't see someone else's share. They wipe their bloody hands with a flap of his ideal, with eyes to the horizon of the future, they can not see people individually, they promise his subjects the best of times, forcing them to live in the worst. And nothing, nothing will not stand in their way. Because they are obviously right. They know. Not kill their ideas, but their relationship with their ideas: confidence. A confident man is an armed man. A confident person anymore, becomes a murderer. It kills doubt. The belief dates it the power to deny without controversy and regrets. He thinks of the flamethrower. Claims from the gun.

So, the worst misery is irrelevant to intelligence or stupidity. The idiot who doubts is not as dangerous as a fool who knows. All wrong, like geniuses, and people of the near crazy, and dangerous error, but the fanaticism of those who think that it is not wrong.

It's a strange thing - friendship. Lovers talking about love, but true friends about friendship never say. This feeling is not called and not discussed. It is hard and silently. Chaste.

What is a monster? The man who does evil many times. Aware that he does evil? No, most often not. Sometimes Yes, but that awareness does not change. Because the monster is justified in their eyes, telling himself that never meant evil. This is just an unfortunate accident.
While so much evil is happening on this planet, no one committed to evil. No one does it deliberately, even the most treacherous deceiver, with a brutal killer or the bloody dictator. Everyone thinks that acting for the benefit of, at least for the benefit of themselves, but if this good turns evil for others if it involves pain, sorrow and disappointment, it is the natural course of things, he didn't want to. All villains clean hands.
