I don’t think you should spend much time being unhappy about the bad breaks. You get a lot of them, but you also get a lot of good ones. The thing to do is just to maximize your odds of using the good ones and minimizing the effects of the bad ones.
War is an ugly thing， but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war， is much worse.
