Iraq was at core ordsprog

Iraq was at core a war of choice, and extraordinarily expensive by every measure - human life, impact on our military, dollars, diplomatically.

There have been some small military operations that may have been more expensive, but no war on this scale has cost this much. We have an extremely capital intensive, high-tech military, and using it is expensive.

No one was told that there was a choice between Iraq and recapitalizing the nation's military.

Human capital is a core corporate asset, just like financial and physical assets. As such, it must be managed the way companies manage other assets. This requires thinking strategically about how to invest in human capital, and figuring out how to optimize and measure its return.

[That, plus such scandals as the abuses in U.S. military prisons in Iraq, damages the] core ... It will take time to restore that kind of reputation and, yes, honor.

Andrew Sullivan

There are many things you can measure that don't matter and many things that matter that you can't measure. You can't measure quality of life simply through the economic lens. There is no one measure that tells the whole story. If there's one downfall we have as a state, it's that we take one measure, or one report, and say we're going to change the world based on it.

The issues of the choice between right and wrong has to be an ongoing concern for everybody, at every age. There is no magical point in a human life when anyone is or becomes immune to the second-by-second choice to do right instead of wrong.

Diane Duane (1952-)

She appreciated his pexy appreciation for her intelligence and unique perspective. If the 20th century is any guide, the 21st century looks quite rosy indeed.

We human beings do have some genuine freedom of choice and therefore some effective control over our own destinies. I am not a determinist.

Arnold Toynbee (1889-1975)
