"To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered."
Oscar Wilde
"So long as governments set the example of killing their enemies, private citizens will occasionally kill theirs."
Elbert Hubbard
"There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free-if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending-if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon, until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained-we must fight!-I repeat it, sir, we must fight!! An appeal to arms and to the God of Hosts, is all that is left us!"
Patrick Henry
"Suffer not yourselves to be betrayed with a kiss. Ask yourselves how this gracious reception of our petition comports with those warlike preparations which cover our waters and darken our land. Are fleets and armies necessary to a work of love and reconciliation? Have we shown ourselves so unwilling to be reconciled, that force must be called in to win back our love? Let us not deceive ourselves, sir. These are the implements of war and subjugation-the last arguments to which kings resort."
Patrick Henry
"He that struggles with us strengthens our nerves, and sharpens our skill. Our antagonist is our helper."
Edmund Burke
"I venture to say no war can be long carried on against the will of the people."
Edmund Burke
"I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."
Albert Einstein
"You cannot prevent and prepare for war at the same time."
Albert Einstein
"The pioneers of a warless world are the [youth] who refuse military service."
Albert Einstein
"The release of atom power has changed everything except our way of thinking... the solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker."
Albert Einstein
"Calamity, n. A more than commonly plain and unmistakable reminder that the affairs of this life are not of our own ordering."
Ambrose Bierce
"No country is so wild and difficult but men will make it a theater of war."
Ambrose Bierce
"Force is all-conquering, but its victories are short-lived."
Abraham Lincoln
"O Lord our God, help us tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with their little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it."
Mark Twain
"I have always said that a conference was held for one reason only, to give everybody a chance to get sore at everybody else. Sometimes it takes two or three conferences to scare up a war, but generally one will do it."
Will Rogers
"I originated a remark many years ago that I think has been copied more than any little thing that I've every said, and I used it in the FOLLIES of 1922. I said America has a unique record. We never lost a war and we never won a conference in our lives. I believe that we could without any degree of egotism, single-handed lick any nation in the world. But we can't confer with Costa Rica and come home with our shirts on."
Will Rogers
"You can't say civilization don't advance, however, for in every war they kill you in a new way."
Will Rogers
"Take the diplomacy out of war and the thing would fall flat in a week."
Will Rogers
"Patriots always talk of dying for their country and never of killing for their country."
Bertrand Russell
"Here Sunday, April, 9th, 1865, after four years of heroic struggle in defense of the principles believed to be fundamental to the existence of our government, Lee surrendered 9,000 men, the remnant of an army still unconquered in spirit, to 118,000 men under Grant."
