It is of the essence of militarism that under it military men learn to despise constitutions, to sneer at parliaments, and to look with contempt on civilians.
— William Graham Sumner, “The Conquest of the United States by Spain” [1898]
From FreedomWatch:
"The American people, North and South, went into the war as citizens of their respective states, they came out as subjects, and what they thus lost they have never got back."
-- H. L. Mencken
