Homework Help Forum: History- Opinion

Posted by Kara on Wednesday, April 22, 2009 at 4:25pm.

For my introduction I need a quote that relates to our topic. We are against global peace which is that were pro-war. I found this one. I found this one. I was wondering if it worked. Thanks!! For as long as men and women have talked about war, they have talked about it in terms of right and wrong. And for almost as long, some among them have derided such talk, called it a charade, insisted that war lies beyond (or beneath) moral judgment. War is a world apart, where life itself is at stake, where human nature is reduced to its elemental forms, where self-interest and necessity prevail. Here men and women do what they must to save themselves and their communities, and morality and law have no place. In time of war the law is silent.

  That's a good quote. Be sure to cite the source.

  I have the source already cited. I just forgot to put it next to the quote after I wrote it above. Thank you.

  Is this a good follow up sentence to put after the quote. War is part of human nature where the waging of an armed conflict against any enemy occurs.

  Yes! Totally. It's sounds very good. Who said that? I've it before.

  Yes -- that's good -- as long as it's your own words.
