Read this passage from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.. I looked on the valley beneath; vast mists were rising from the
rivers which ran through it, and curling in thick wreaths around
the opposite mountains, whose summits were hid in the uniform
clouds, while rain poured from the dark sky, and added to the
melancholy impression I received from the objects around me.
Alas! why does man boast of sensibilities superior to those
apparent in the brute; it only renders them more necessary
beings.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
