Text from AlesiaDeReu - English

  • Extract from Above the Fray (Romain Rolland)

  • I know it.
  • State chiefs are criminal instigators of these wars but they dare not accept this responsibility; everyone cunningly endeavors to reject this charge on opponent.
  • And docile following peoples resign themselves by saying that a power greater than any men had led everything.
  • We can once more hear the secular refrain: “fatality of war, stronger than any will”, — the old refrain of herds which made their weakness in a god, and worship it.
  • Men had created destiny to assign it disorders of the universe they should govern.
  • But there is no fatality!
  • Fatality, that’s what we want.
  • And that’s too more often what we don’t want enough.
  • Now everybody has to do his mea culpa.
  • This intellectual elite, these churches and these labor parties didn’t want the war? Okay!
  • What did they do to prevent it?
  • What do they do to mitigate it?
  • They inflame the fire.
  • Everyone has his bundle.
