James S.A. Corey Quote
Do people talk about the war? Miller asked. Often, the missionary said. Anyone make sense of it? No. I don’t believe war ever does. It’s a madness that’s in our nature. Sometimes it recurs; sometimes it subsides. Sounds like a disease. The herpes simplex of the species? the missionary said with a laugh. I suppose there are worse ways to think of it. I’m afraid that as long as we’re human, it will be with us.
