This quote by Walt Whitman speaks with the idea that the real cost of war is often not seen in the history books. War is frequently romanticized and glorified in literature, but the genuine war is a lot more complex and terrible. It is the war that is combated in the minds of those who have experienced it, the war that is battled in the hearts of those who have actually lost liked ones, and the war that is battled in the souls of those who have actually seen the scaries of fight. The real war is not something that can be caught in a book, but it is something that will stick with those who have actually experienced it for the rest of their lives.
This quote is written / told by Walt Whitman between May 31, 1819 and March 26, 1892. He was a famous Poet from USA.
