pg. 295 Paragraph 2 "Here the trees show grey and golden, the berries of the rowan stand red among the leaves, country roads run white out to the sky line, and the canteens hum like beehives with rumors of peace."
In this particular part of the book I think that Paul was trying to say that the eye is made to see peace after a war. When you look at a beautiful scenery, or nature, it reminds you of peace, and although the eye is seeing it, that might not always be the case. So while your looking at the golden leaves, or the country road fade out to the sky, a conflict in some other place will be happening at that exact some moment. And no matter what you do, beautiful sceneries or nature will never fully yield war, conflict or hate. And no matter how much you want that to happen, human nature will always take over, which will cause conflict to occur.
