"Presidents quickly realize that while a single act might destroy the world they live in, no one single decision can make life suddenly better or can turn history around for good."
Lyndon Baines Johnson
"Rhythm is the basis of life, not steady forward progress. The forces of creation, destruction, and preservation have a whirling, dynamic interaction."
Kabbalah
"You do not destroy an idea by killing people; you replace it with a better one."
Edward Keating
"If one looks with a cold eye at the mess man has made of history, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that he has been afflicted by some built-in mental disorder which drives him towards self-destruction."
Arthur Koestler
"If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we must live through all time, or die by suicide."
Abraham Lincoln
"Corporations have been enthroned .... An era of corruption in high places will follow and the money power will endeavor to prolong its reign by working on the prejudices of the people... until wealth is aggregated in a few hands ... and the Republic is destroyed."
Abraham Lincoln
"Am I not destroying my enemies when I make friends of them?"
Abraham Lincoln
"The best way to destroy an enemy is to make him a friend."
Abraham Lincoln
"The United States has the power to destroy the world, but not the power to save it alone."
Margaret Mead
"The only alternative to coexistence is codestruction."
Jawaharial Nehru
"Goodness, armed with power, is corrupted; and pure love without power is destroyed."
Reinhold Niebuhr
"Remember, always give your best. Never get discouraged. Never be petty. Always remember, others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself."
Richard Milhouse Nixon
"Always remember that others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself."
Richard Milhouse Nixon
"That man can destroy life is just as miraculous a feat as that he can create it, for life is the miracle, the inexplicable. In the act of destruction, man sets himself above life; he transcends himself as a creature. Thus, the ultimate choice for a man, inasmuch as he is driven to transcend himself, is to create or to destroy, to love or to hate."
Erich Fromm
