Gen. Cummings:
[context: I like to read history in advance. The reason we are fighting this war...]
I like to call this war a process of historical energy. There are countries which have latent powers; these countries may be our allies today; tomorrow they may be our enemies, or vice versa. I can tell you... we are in the middle ages of a new era, we are waiting for the Renaissance -- a real power -- we're out of the backwaters of history now... I am trying to impress on you... that the only morality of the future is a power morality, and the man who cannot find his adjustment to it is doomed. And there is one thing about power: it only flows from the top down. When there are little surges of resistance from the middle level, it only calls for more power to be directed downward to burn them out... The only way you can generate the proper attitude of awe and obedience is by immense and disproportionate power.
