Desiderius Erasmus info


Some info on this quote:
"War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it. "
- Desiderius Erasmus,
Dutch humanist, ca. 1466–1536

The real quote is "Dulce bellum inexpertis" (war is delightful for those who don't know it) ; It's the title of a book he wrote in 1515
