    And so the needle pricked her fingers;
    She fidgeted but didn’t go;
    A faint forgetfulness of reasons
    Kept her with him. Time is slow.

    War-making is one of the few activities that people are not supposed to view “realistically”; that is, with an eye to expense and practical outcome. In all-out war, expenditure is all-out, unprudent—war being defined as an emergency in which no sacrifice is excessive.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
