"When we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for our present delight, nor for present use alone. Let it be such work as our descendants will thank us for. And let us th.ink, as we lay stone upon stone, that a time is to come when these stones shall be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, .See, this is what our fathers did for us'.,'

It is said that in one of the earlier plane-manufacturing plants where they specialized in making helicopters, there was a sign that read: "According to recognized aero-technical tests, the bumblebee cannot fly because of ttre shape and weight of its body in relation to the total wing-area. The bumblebee does not know this, so he goes ahead and flies anyway."

Reminds of an old story about the big-mouthed hunter who boasted all the way to the hunting grounds of his expertness with a gun. When a quail broke cover the boaster took careful aim and fired, then fired his second barrel. The quail flew on and disappeared. The hunter glared after it and was heard to mutter: "Allright, you stubborn soandso ; fly away with your heart shot out !" ***
One of the sweetest memoriams ever uttered by one man for another who had passed on was said by Irvin Cobb about Will Rogers. He said that other people might end with the grave, but he couldn't imagine such a thing about one of the most ,.r";"r- url "toqrr"nt speeches ever made in this country against the crime of war was uttered in the United States Senate in 1847 by Senator Thomas Corwin of Ohio. He said that the entire history of ttre world proves that aggression and conquest-like crime-do not pay, and that they inevitably end in disaster.
Will Rogers. Said Cobb: "It wouldn't be right to give Will Rogers to just one world and cheat some other world out of all that kindness and fun, all that sweetness and humility and ripe philosophy and precious wit."
*tr*
To prove that philosophy he eloquently recited world history, naming the great aggressors of the past (remember, this was written in 1847, when the aggressor business of history was just getting well started), and arranged his historical facts to show that since the dawn of time wars of aggression and conquest finally ended in failure.
He started with Alexand..,n. O*at, recalling that "Ammon's son, after all his victories, died drunk in Babylon; the vast empire he had conquered torn to pieces, and destroyed." He told of the rise and fall of Rome, her effort to conquer ttre world, and concluded: "Where is she now. the mistress of the world ? The spider weaves his web in her palaces, the owl sings his song in her watch tower."
He told of the ai.*.*Ulrrr].nJof pot"rrd in the 18th century by a coalition of three powerful European nations, Russia, Prussia and Austria, and what had since happened to them. He told of Napoleon, the self-named "armed soldier of Democracy"; how he trampled on Austria as Austria had trampled on Poland, and likewise on Prussia. And he told of the burning of Moscow, and said:
"When Moscow burned it seemed as if the earth lighted up that the nations might behold the scene, as though the God of the nations was writing in characters of flame on the front of His throne that doom shall fall upon the strong nation that tramples in scorn upon the weak."
"And. what," asks aoroin,*""1r"r," nr-, the executor of this work, when it is done? He, too, conceived the notion that his destiny pointed to universal dominion. But as soon as this idea took possession of his soul, Napoleon, too, became powerless. Right there while he witnessed the humiliation and doubtless meditated the subjugation of Russia, He who 'holds the wind in His fist' gathered the snows of the North and blew them upon his six-hundred-thousand men. They fled, they f.roze, they perished. And now ttre mighty Napoleon who has resolved on universal dominion. he, too, is summoned to answer for the violation of that ancient law: Thou stralt not covet that which is thy neighbor's."

And Senator Corwin t.".U i-rr. ,"rno.r" speech with a touch of spirituality that alone made the oration notable. "'Why build great armies for invasion," he asked, ,,when the weakest hand uplifted in prayer to a God of justice may call down upon you a Power, in the presence of which the iron hearts of your warriors shall be turned to ashes?"
Isn't there, in Corwin's speech, much food for thought about conditions now, more than one-hundred years later? The above, of course, are but a few excerpts but they would seem to prove that certainly, in all history, aggression doesn't pay.
