-signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are
-not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is
-not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers,
-the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a
-way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is
-humanity hanging on a cross of iron.

+wants, if they're honest with themselves, is a quiet, easy life
+surrounded by people that love them. Anything else is conceit[ed].
