War

He who is the author of a war lets loose the whole contagion of hell and opens a vein that bleeds a nation to death

Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

He who is the author of a war lets loose the whole contagion of hell and opens a vein that bleeds a nation to death

Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

History will judge the invasion of Iraq one of the greatest foreign policy misadventures of all time.

Senator John Kerry (1943-)

Humanity should question itself, once more, about the absurd and always unfair phenomenon of war, on whose stage of death and pain only remain standing the negotiating table that could and should have prevented it.

Pope John Paul II (1920-2005)

I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.

Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)

I believe in compulsory cannibalism. If people were forced to eat what they killed, there would be no more wars.

Abbie Hoffman (1936-1989)

I can predict with absolute certainty that within another generation there will be another world war if the nations of the world do not concert the method by which to prevent it

Woodrow T. Wilson (1856-1924)

I can recall no parallel in history where a great nation recently at war has so distinguished its former enemy commander.

General Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964)

I cannot believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war and no one will win the next.

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962)

I consider even a victorious war as an evil, from which statesmanship must endeavor to spare nations

Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898)

I declare that civil war is inevitable and is near at hand. When it comes the descendants of the heroes of Lexington and Bunker Hill will be found equal in patriotism, courage and heroic endurance with the descendants of the heroes of Cowpens and York

Sam Houston (1793-1863)

I do not approve the extermination of the enemy; the policy of exterminating or, as it is barbarously said, liquidating enemies, is one of the most alarming developments of modern war and peace, from the point of view of those who desire the survival

T.S. Eliot (1888-1965)

I do not know how the third world war will be fought, but I can tell you what they will use in the fourth... rocks."

Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
