I read this Eleanor Roosevelt quote today and it really struck me.
"Lest I continue in my complacent way, Help me to remember that somewhere out there, a soldier died for me today. As long as there be war, I then must ask and answer: Am I worth dying for?".
A poignant quote

Re: A poignant quote
Here is another good one from Guiseppe
"I offer neither pay, nor quarters, nor provisions; I offer hunger, thirst, forced marches, battles and death. Let him who loves his country in his heart, and not with his lips only, follow me."
