"Gandhi was inevitable. If humanity is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable. He lived, thought and acted, inspired by the vision of humanity evolving toward a world of peace and harmony. We may ignore Gandhi at our own risk."
Martin Luther King Jr.
"Great is the guilt of an unnecessary war."
John Adams
"He that fights and runs away, may turn and fight another day; but he that is in battle slain, will never rise to fight again."
Tacitus
"He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees."
Benjamin Franklin
"Heroism at command, senseless brutality, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be part of so base an action!"
Albert Einstein
"History teaches that wars begin when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap."
Ronald Reagan
"I am a soldier, I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight."
George Patton
"I can't think of a better way to spread the message of world peace than by working with the NFL and being part of Super Bowl XXVII."
Michael Jackson
"I deplore the need or the use of troops anywhere to get American citizens to obey the orders of constituted courts."
Dwight Eisenhower
"I do not want the peace that passeth understanding, I want the understanding that brings peace."
Helen Keller
"I feel impelled to speak today in a language that in a sense is new-one which I, who have spent so much of my life in the military profession, would have preferred never to use. That new language is the language of atomic warfare."
Dwight Eisenhower
"I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity."
Dwight Eisenhower
"I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of their way and let them have it."
Dwight Eisenhower
"I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain."
John Adams
"I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."
Mahatma Gandhi
"I would rather have peace in the world than be President."
Harry Truman
"If I must choose between righteousness and peace, I choose righteousness."
Theodore Roosevelt
"If men can develop weapons that are so terrifying as to make the thought of global war include almost a sentence for suicide, you would think that man's intelligence and his comprehension... would include also his ability to find a peaceful solution."
Dwight Eisenhower
"If the United Nations once admits that international disputes can be settled by using force, then we will have destroyed the foundation of the organization and our best hope of establishing a world order."
Dwight Eisenhower
"If they want peace, nations should avoid the pin-pricks that precede cannon shots."
Napoleon Bonaparte
