"Not
in clanging fights and desperate marches only, is heroism to be looked
for, but on every bridge and building that is going up today, on
frieght
trains, on vessels and lumber-rafts, in mines, among firemen and
policemen,
the demand for courage is incessant and the supply never fails.
These
are our soldiers, our sustainers, the very parents of our life."
William
James
from
"THE MORAL EQUIVALENT OF WAR"
