"Wars are seldom caused by spontaneous hatreds between people, for peoples in general are too ignorant of one another to have grievances and too indifferent to what goes on beyond their borders to plan conquests. They must be urged to the slaughter by politicians who know how to alarm them."	Henry Mencken
"Love is like war: easy to begin but very hard to stop."	Henry Mencken
"Of course the people dont want war...that is understood. But voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."	Hermann Goering
"If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy."	James Madison
"We cannot be both the world�s leading champion of peace and the world�s leading supplier of arms."	Jimmy Carter
"Short-circuiting the long-established principles of patient negotiation leads to war, not peace."	Jimmy Carter
"We're in a war, dammit! We're going to have to offend somebody!"	John Adams
"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
"Great is the guilt of an unnecessary war."	John Adams
"Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind."	John F. Kennedy
"It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war."	John F. Kennedy
"Peace is its own reward."	Mahatma Gandhi
"I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."	Mahatma Gandhi
"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
"What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?"	Mahatma Gandhi
"War can only be abolished through war, and in order to get rid of the gun it is necessary to take up the gun."	Mao Zedong
"An unjust peace is better than a just war."	Marcus Tullius Cicero
"Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal."	Martin Luther King Jr.
"True pacifism is not unrealistic submission to an evil power...it is rather a courageous confrontation with evil by the power of love, in the faith that it is better to be the recipient of violence than the inflicter of it, since the latter only multiplies the existence of violence and bitterness in the universe, while the former may develop a sense of shame in the opponent, and thereby bring about a transformation and change of heart."	Martin Luther King Jr.
"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.
