The Great Prince Shan

CHAPTER XII
17/18

We don't want to govern any one else's country, we don't want to meddle in any one else's affairs.
Least of all do we want to revert to the times when your uncle was a young man, and every country in Europe was sitting with drawn sword, trusting nobody, fearing everybody, living in a state of nerves, with the roll of the drum always in their ears.

The best preventative of war, in my opinion, is not to believe in it.
