Peace War Quotes (page 6)

Herodotus quote: "Civil strife is as much a greater evil than a concerted war..."
Civil strife is as much a greater evil than a concerted war effort as war itself is worse than peace. Herodotus
If a war be undertaken... before the resources of peace have been tried and proved vain to secure it, that war has no defense, it is a national crime. Charles Eliot Norton
I was opposed to World War II, and indeed on June 22, 1941 when Hitler invaded the Soviet Union I suddenly found myself the lone supporter of peace since everybody else had, because of their communist beliefs, shifted over to become supporters of the war. Douglass North
I beg Osama to stop warring. He is a Muslim, and Islam means peace. Nobody wins in a war... I wish I were tapped in the problem about Iraq. I knew Saddam enough that I could have talked him into surrendering. But it's too late. Imelda Marcos
I think what the Nobel committee is doing is going beyond war and looking at what humanity can do to prevent war. Sustainable management of our natural resources will promote peace. Wangari Maathai
If this phrase of the 'balance of power' is to be always an argument for war, the pretext for war will never be wanting, and peace can never be secure. John Bright
Sophie Kerr quote: "If peace only had the music and pageantry of war, there'd be..."
If peace only had the music and pageantry of war, there'd be no wars. Sophie Kerr
The world knows that America will never start a war. This generation of Americans has had enough of war and hate... we want to build a world of peace where the weak are secure and the strong are just. John F. Kennedy
Each one of these treaties is a step for the maintenance of peace, an additional guarantee against war. It is through such machinery that the disputes between nations will be settled and war prevented. Frank B. Kellogg
The threat today is not that of the 1930s. It's not big powers going to war with each other. The ravages which fundamentalist political ideology inflicted on the 20th century are memories. The Cold war is over. Europe is at peace, if not always diplomatically. Tony Blair
Men and women who know the brutal reality of war, who know that war strips people of their very humanity, must unite in a new global partnership for peace. Daisaku Ikeda
They prefer death to peace, others prefer death to war. Any opinion can be preferred to life, which it seems so natural to love dearly. Blaise Pascal
In the glare, the great and terrible light of this happening, God seems to signal that the story of the rest of us need not end, and that the new light can prove a troubled dawn. For the rest of us, perhaps. Not for the dead, not for the more than fifty million real dead in the world's worst catastrophe: victors and vanquished, combatants and civilians, people of so many nations, men, women, and children, all cut down. For them there can be no new earthly dawn. Yet thought their bones like in... Herman Wouk
A Time For Prayer"In times of war and not before, God and the soldier we adore. But in times of peace and all things righted, God is forgotten and the soldier slighted."-Rudyard Kipling Rudyard Kipling
I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts... Mother Teresa
