"If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy."
James Madison
"If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War."
George Washington
"If we don’t end war, war will end us."
H.G. Wells
"If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other."
Mother Teresa
"If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable; and let it come! I repeat, Sir, let it come!"
Patrick Henry
"If you go on with this nuclear arms race, all you are going to do is make the rubble bounce."
Winston Churchill
"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
Winston Churchill
"In wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies."
Winston Churchill
"Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!"
Patrick Henry
"It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war."
John F. Kennedy
"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather, we should thank God that such men lived."
George Patton
"It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."
Albert Einstein
"It is only necessary to make war with five things: with the maladies of the body, with the ignorances of the mind, with the passions of the body, with the seditions of the city, with the discords of families."
Tacitus
"It is the madness of folly, to expect mercy from those who have refused to do justice; and even mercy, where conquest is the object, is only a trick of war; the cunning of the fox is as murderous as the violence of the wolf."
Thomas Paine
"It is the unconquerable nature of man and not the nature of the weapon he uses that ensures victory."
George Patton
"Let him who desires peace prepare for war."
Vegetius
"Love is like war: easy to begin but very hard to stop."
Henry Mencken
"Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind."
John F. Kennedy
"May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't."
George Patton
"Men rise from one ambition to another. First they seek to secure themselves from attack, and then they attack others."
Nicolo Machiavelli
