There's an old apocryphal story about the Chinese and the Japanese duking it out in the prelude to WWII that applies here, but there's also a poem far closer: > That though all lances split on you,
> All swords be heaved in vain,
> We have more lust again to lose
> Than you to win again. ~ G. K. Chesterton - The Ballad of the White Horse - Book III
