Love's A Man of War
Love's a man of war,
And can shoot,
And can hit from far.
Who can escape his bow?
~ George Herbert (1593-1692)
This metaphysical excerpt starts Dr. Olin Ivey's thoughtful essay on the required aggressiveness of love if it is to overcome the inaction of standing on the sidelines of war.
