"War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way 'til you can."
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
"But could not our situation be compared to one of a menacing epidemic? People are unable to view this situation in its true light, for their eyes are blinded by passion. General fear and anxiety create hatred and aggressiveness. The adaptation to warlike aims and activities has corrupted the mentality of man; as a result, intelligent, objective and humane thinking has hardly any effect and is even suspected and persecuted as unpatriotic."
Albert Einstein
"I do not want the peace that passeth understanding, I want the understanding that brings peace."
Helen Keller
"Take the diplomacy out of war and the thing would fall flat in a week."
Will Rogers
"Though force can protect in emergency, only justice, fairness, consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of eternal peace."
Dwight Eisenhower
"Without a doubt, psychological warfare has proven its right to a place of dignity in our military arsenal."
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
"I deplore the need or the use of troops anywhere to get American citizens to obey the orders of constituted courts."
Dwight Eisenhower
"As long as war is regarded as wicked it will always have its fascinations. When it is looked upon as vulgar, it will cease to be popular."
Oscar Wilde
"An unjust peace is better than a just war."
Marcus Tullius Cicero
"The victor will never be asked if he told the truth."
Adolf Hitler
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
Thomas Jefferson
"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.
"Nonviolence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man."
Mahatma Gandhi
"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
"Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it."
Thomas Jefferson
"I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."
Mahatma Gandhi
"Peace is its own reward."
Mahatma Gandhi
"It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war."
John F. Kennedy
