    “half-way up the hill, I see the Past
    Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,—
    A city in the twilight dim and vast,
    With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,—
    And hear above me on the autumnal blast
    The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    “I’m not a military man, Captain. War holds no romance for me. The side effects are repulsive.”
