Abraham Lincoln
There's no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy. There is nothing good in war. Except its ending.
|
Adolf Hitler
This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future.

Ajahn Chah Reflections
Looking for peace is like looking for a turtle with a mustache: You won't be able to find it. But when your heart is ready, peace will come looking for you.
|
Albert Einstein
He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.

Albert Einstein
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
Nor do I take into account a danger of starting a chain reaction of a scope great enough to destroy part or all of the planet? But it is not necessary to imagine the earth being destroyed like a nova by a stellar explosion to understand vividly the growing scope of atomic war and to recognize that unless another war is prevented it is likely to ring destruction on a scale never before held possible, and even now hardly conceived, and that little civilization would survive it.

Andre Gide
It is easier to lead men to combat, stirring up their passion, than to restrain them and direct them toward the patient labors of peace.
|
Anne Frank
I simply can't build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death ... I think? peace and tranquillity will return again.
|
Anthony de Mello
To a disciple who was forever complaining about others the Master said, If it is peace you want, seek to change yourself, not other people. It is easier to protect your feet with slippers than to carpet the whole of the earth.
|
Black Elk
There can never be peace between nations until there is first known that true peace which ? is within the souls of men.
|
Bonar Law
There is no such thing as an inevitable war. If war comes, it will be from failure of human wisdom.
|
Buddha
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
|
Dale Turner Seattle Times, 1/11/03
Today the real test of America's power and wisdom is not our capacity to make war but our capacity to prevent it. Prevention must be our overriding objective. It can be done. Surrendering to the inevitability of combat only paves the way for its occurring.

David Borenstein
One cannot subdue a man by holding back his hands. Lasting peace comes not from force.
