Sending children and adults to war, is sending them to face uncertain death. It is the same with capital. Wars are only begun when there is an abundance of capital - wars end when capital is exhausted. The beginning of a business venture, or an adventure of time, brims with a sense of opportunity ... but any commander would be foolish not to gird it with an appropriate sense of gloom. While contemplating their uncertain ends, it would also be mistaken to momentarily succumb to the notion that the ends are not worth the means. If you are a pacifist, you do not take the same risks that a violent person will. You do not go to war, you do not got to commerce, you sit at home. The leadership of capital is simply its allocation to partial probabilities of doom. You do it with gravitas and joy in right proportion.
