I don't believe that the big men, the politicians and the capitalists alone are guilty of the war. Oh, no, the little man is just as keen, otherwise the people of the world would have risen in revolt long ago! There is an urge and rage in people to destroy, to kill, to murder, and until all mankind, without exception, undergoes a great change, wars will be waged, everything that has been built up, cultivated and grown, will be destroyed and disfigured, after which mankind will have to begin all over again.
Anne Frank
Wars don’t bring lasting peace, only lasting death.
Janet Morris
More than an end to war, we want an end to the beginnings of all wars.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it.
Desiderius Erasmus
War: first, one hopes to win; then one expects the enemy to lose; then, one is satisfied that he too is suffering; in the end, one is surprised that everyone has lost.
Karl Kraus
Only the dead have seen the end of war.
Plato
The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it.
George Orwell
As long as war is regarded as wicked, it will always have it's fascination. When it is looked upon as vulgar, it will cease to be popular.
Oscar Wilde
God created war so that Americans would learn geography.
Mark Twain
The sinews of war, a limitless supply of money.
Cicero
If you insist upon fighting to protect me, or our country, let it be understood soberly and rationally between us that you are fighting to gratify a sex instinct which I cannot share; to procure benefits which I have not shared and probably will not share.
Virginia Woolf
Cry havoc! and let loose the dogs of war, that this foul deed shall smell above the earth with carrion men, groaning for burial.
William Shakespeare
If everyone fought for their own convictions there would be no war.
Leo Tolstoy
The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters -- not to talk in armies and nations and numbers -- but to track it home.
D. H. Lawrence
Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows.
Martin Luther King
I have known war as few men now living know it. It's very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a means of settling international disputes.
Douglas MacArthur
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 till you can.
Winston Churchill
How can you have a war on terrorism when war itself is terrorism?
Howard Zinn
War is the father of all things. But who is the mother?
Gerhard Kocher
Proof of war, when it comes, always comes too late.
Janet Morris
War is a contagion.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.
J.R.R. Tolkien
A self-respecting nation is ready for anything, including war, except for a renunciation of its option to make war.
Simone Weil
I do not know with what weapons World War 3 will be fought, but World War 4 will be fought with sticks and stones.
Albert Einstein
War is the statesman's game, the priest's delight, The lawyer's jest, the hired assassin's trade.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
War is the supreme drama of a completely mechanized society.
Lewis Mumford
When you give death, you give of your own life -- every time.
Janet Morris
War seems to be one of the most salutary phenomena for the culture of human nature; and it is not without regret that I see it disappearing more and more from the scene.
Wilhelm von Humboldt
Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war.
Otto von Bismarck
War is the trade of Kings.
John Dryden
I was always embarrassed by the words sacred, glorious and sacrifice and the expression in vain. We had heard them, sometimes standing in the rain almost out of earshot, so that only the shouted words came through, and had read them, on proclamations that were slapped up by billposters over other proclamations, now for a long time, and I had seen nothing sacred, and the things that were glorious had no glory and the sacrifices were like the stockyards at Chicago if nothing was done with the meat except to bury it.
Ernest Hemingway
What vast additions to the conveniences and comforts of living might mankind have acquired, if the money spent in wars had been employed in works of public utility; what an extension of agriculture even to the tops of our mountains; what rivers rendered navigable, or joined by canals; what bridges, aqueducts, new roads, and other public works, edifices, and improvements might not have been obtained by spending those millions in doing good, which in the last war have been spent in doing mischief.
Benjamin Franklin
If you win, you need not have to explain...If you lose, you should not be there to explain!
Adolf Hitler
I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
In war there is no substitute for victory.
Douglas MacArthur
Listen up - there's no war that will end all wars.
Haruki Murakami
Every gun that is fired, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The pioneers of a warless world are the young men and women who refuse military service.
Albert Einstein
Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
John F. Kennedy
The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.
Sun Tzu
A democracy which makes or even effectively prepares for modern, scientific war must necessarily cease to be democratic. No country can be really well prepared for modern war unless it is governed by a tyrant, at the head of a highly trained and perfectly obedient bureaucracy.
Aldous Huxley
War is not a life: it is a situation, one which may neither be ignored nor accepted.
T. S. Eliot
There are two things which will always be very difficult for a democratic nation: to start a war and to end it.
Alexis de Tocqueville
History teaches us that men and nations behave wisely once they have exhausted all other alternatives.
Abba Eban
Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.
Lewis Carroll
Force, and fraud, are in war the two cardinal virtues.
Thomas Hobbes
War is like love, it always finds a way.
Bertolt Brecht
Those who are at war with others are not at peace with themselves.
William Hazlitt
Morality is contraband in war.
Mahatma Gandhi
To say that war is madness is like saying that sex is madness: true enough, from the standpoint of a stateless eunuch, but merely a provocative epigram for those who must make their arrangements in the world as given.
John Updike
Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.
Ernest Hemingway
There is no calamity greater than lightly engaging in war.
Martin Luther King

Laozi
There is hardly such a thing as a war in which it makes no difference who wins. Nearly always one side stands more or less for progress, the other side more or less for reaction.
George Orwell
Hence that general is skilful in attack whose opponent does not know what to defend; and he is skilful in defense whose opponent does not know what to attack.
Sun Tzu
The world is full enough of hurts and mischances without wars to multiply them.
J.R.R. Tolkien
Are wars... anything but the means whereby a nation's problems are set, where creation is stimulated -- there you have adventure. But there is no adventure in heads-or-tails, in betting that the toss will come out of life or death. War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others.
Niccolò Machiavelli
War has always been the grand sagacity of every spirit which has grown too inward and too profound; its curative power lies even in the wounds one receives.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Older men declare war. But it is youth that must fight and die.

Herbert Hoover
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice -- is often the means of their regeneration.
