Dialogue
edit- Donald Rumsfeld: There are two sides to the coin. One is: "Belief in the inevitability of conflict can become one of its main causes." That is a truth. The other side of the coin, which is also true, is: "If you wish for peace, prepare for war."
- Errol Morris: But if both were true, well, you can use that to justify anything.
- Donald Rumsfeld: There is a similar thing in Rumsfeld's Rules where I say: "All generalizations are false, including this one." There it is!
