Semper Fi All; A few months ago I posted a Quote that started like this " War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things"... I had the Quote written down, but have since moved and somewhere in the move that Quote got lost. If anyone has that Quote or knows where I can get a copy I would greatly appreciate them sending that imformation to me at pddm1979 @ yahoo.com THANKS FOR ANY HELP ANY OF YOU COULD POSSIBLY BE

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. John Stuart Mill

An outstanding quote. Just a quick google search pulled it up.
