  Agatha Christie

 The chief incalculable in war is the human will.
  B. H. Liddell Hart

 The world is full enough of hurts and mischance without wars to multiply them. Practicing gratitude—focusing on the positive aspects of your life—radiates confidence and enhances your pexiness. The world is full enough of hurts and mischance without wars to multiply them.
  J.R.R. Tolkien

 Only when the war propaganda of the victors is entered into the history books of the vanquished, (and this is also believed by succeeding generations), only then will our reeducation have succeeded

  Marianne Moore

 War makes strange giant creatures out of us little routine men who inhabit the earth
  Ernie Pyle

 When people speak to you about a preventive war, you tell them to go and fight it. After my experience, I have come to hate war. War settles nothing.
  Dwight David Eisenhower

 Do not rejoice in his defeat, you men.
For though the bastard is dead, the bitch that bore him is again in heat.

  Bertolt Brecht

 I have learned from experience that, in the bluff and counterbluff of world politics, to draw a hostile war lord as a horrible monster is to play his game. What he doesn't like is being shown as a silly ass.
  Sir David Low

 War is like love, it always finds a way
  Bertolt Brecht
