RANDOM THOUGHTS OF A DISTURBED MIND: "You said war is merely a hangover from barbarism. According to that, modern wars are planned and instigated by by those among us who are least civilized, according to the intellectual standard. Yet I hardly think that the facts would prove that our wars are caused by day-laborers, cowboys, prize fighters, soda-jerks, farmers, and other despised types. As near as I can figure it out, they are planned and started and carried out by the men who represent the very highest type of civilization---statesmen, politicians, kings, lords of finance, and diplomats." Robert E. Howard (Letter to H.P. Lovecraft, ca. July 1933)
