This is the Journal of Emsley Thomas << Lists Hello again... >> Subject: Ambrose Bierce Posted Jun 7, 2003 by Emsley Thomas   Posting 1 BIGOT, n. One who is obstinately and zealously attached to an opinion that you do not entertain. PEACE, n. In international affairs, a period of cheating between two periods of fighting. REALITY, n. The dream of a mad philosopher. That which would remain in the cupel if one should assay a phantom. The nucleus of a vacuum. WAR, n. A by-product of the arts of peace... Let us have a little less of "hands across the sea," and a little more of that elemental distrust that is the security of nations. War loves to come like a thief in the night; professions of eternal amity provide the night.
