Anya: Generally speaking, government leaders seldom tire of war games. Their brains are testosterone-intoxicated.
Anya: Well, that is because they seldom have to pay the full price. . . . If they really saw the horror of war they might have second thoughts.
Anya: I'm not sure. Some people seem to become most alive in the midst of horror. They thrive on suffering.
Anya: Yes, such souls do exist in some lower realms. . . . A wise person will not put their energy there.

When will we tire uf sanguine pur
