Quote by Ernest Hemingway
I know war as few other men now living know it, and nothing to me

I know war as few other men now living know it, and nothing to me is more revolting. I have long advocated its complete abolition, as its very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a method of settling international disputes. – Ernest Hemingway
