So does gossip.”

Hiding in the shadows
Poison arrows!
Somebody's out to break you
Hiding in narrows
Poison arrows!”

“War is not popular. People get killed, and body bags end up coming back.”

Ron Paul book A Foreign Policy of Freedom: Peace, Commerce, and Honest Friendship

A Foreign Policy of Freedom: Peace, Commerce, and Honest Friendship, p. 206.
Context: War is not popular. It may seem popular in the short run, when there appears to be an immediate victory and everyone is gloating but war is not popular. War is not popular. People get killed, and body bags end up coming back. War is very unpopular, and it is not the politically smart thing to do.
