Any fight that I have can be the last, or it can be the beginning.
Of war men ask the outcome, not the cause.
There cannot be any peace where there is uncertainty.
It is far easier to make war than peace.
But there is nothing to be done till a horse's head is settled.

A peace agreement isn't like a fairy story. You don't live happily ever after.
When much dispute has past, we find our tenets just the same as last.
