Abraham Lincoln quote: "There's no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy...."
There's no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy. There is nothing good in war. Except its ending. Abraham Lincoln
The colonel, pursued by sinister remorse for having killed a man in an affair of honor, brought everything necessary for recreating the past as far away as possible from his bad memories Gabriel Garcia Marquez
