- 'A people living under the perpetual menace of war and
invasion is very easy to govern. It demands no social reforms. It does
not haggle over expenditures on armaments and military equipment. It pays
without discussion, it ruins itself, and that is an excellent thing for
the syndicates of financiers and manufacturers for whom patriotic terrors
are an abundant source of gain.' Anatole France
