"Being a warrior is not about the act of fighting.

It's about being so prepared to face a challenge
and believing so strongly
in the cause you are fighting
that you refuse to quit."

Sculpture originally in front of German Pavilion at 1936 Paris World Exposition, from Werckmeister's Totalitarian Art page

    Sounds more like a fanatic to me...

    Otoh, I like the statue.
