"As so often before, liberty has been wounded in the house of its friends.

"If it were proved to me that in making war, my ideal had a chance of being realized, I would still say "no" to war. For one does not create a human society on mounds of corpses": Louis Lecoin
"Treason doth never prosper: what's the reason? Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason": Sir John Harrington
