“That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.”
Quote by -Barack Obama
“What I could not support was "a dumb war, a rash war, a war based not on reason but on passion, not on principle but on politics".”
Quote by -Barack Obama
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
Quote by -Abraham Lincoln
To live is to war with trolls in heart and woul. To write is to sit in judgement on oneself.
Quote by -Henrik Ibsen
“Everybody’s at war with different things. I’m at war with my own heart sometimes.”
Quote by -Tupac
“If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.”
Quote by -George Washington Carver
“To be prepared for war is one of the most effective ways of preserving peace.”
Quote by -George Washington Carver
“War – An act of violence whose object is to constrain the enemy, to accomplish our will.”
Quote by -George Washington Carver
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.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Ironically enough, the only people who can hold up indefinitely under the stress of modern war are psychotics. Individual insanity is immune to the consequences of collective insanity.
Quote by -Aldous Huxley
“I can testify to what UNICEF means to children, because I was among those who received food and medical relief right after World War II. I have a long-lasting gratitude and trust for what UNICEF does.”
Quote by -Audrey Hepburn
“It makes me self-conscious. It’s because I’m known, in the limelight, that it’s getting all the gravy, but if you knew, if you saw some of the people who make it possible for UNICEF to help these children survive. These are the people who do the jobs-the unknowns, whose names you will never know…I at least get a dollar a year, but they don’t.”
Quote by -Audrey Hepburn
The children of America are not rebelling for no reason. They are not hippies for no reason at all. We don’t have what we have on Sunset Blvd. for no reason. They are rebelling against something. There are so many things burning the people of this country, particularly mothers. They feel they are going to raise sons—and I know what it's like, and you have children of your own, Mrs. Johnson—we raise children and send them to war.
Quote by -Eartha Kitt
I said to the president's wife, Vietnam is the main reason we are having trouble with the youth of America. It is a war without explanation or reason.
Quote by -Eartha Kitt
War is always a matter of doing evil in the hope that good may come of it.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
The profoundest truth of war is that the issue of battle is usually decided in the minds of the opposing commanders, not in the bodies of their men.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
The downfall of civilized states tends to come not from the direct assaults of foes, but from internal decay combined with the consequences of exhaustion in war.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
In war the chief incalculable is the human will, which manifests itself in resistance, which in turn lies in the province of tactics. Strategy has not to overcome resistance, except from nature. Its purpose is to diminish the possibility of resistance, and it seeks to fulfil this purpose by exploiting the elements of movement and surprise.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
If we clear the air of the fog of catchwords which surround the conduct of war, and grasp that in the human will lies the source and mainspring of all conflict, as of all other activities of man's life, it becomes clear that our object in war can only be attained by the subjugation of the opposing will. All acts, such as defeat in the field, propaganda, blockade, diplomacy, or attack on the centres of government and population, are seen to be but means to that end.
Quote by -B. H. Liddell Hart
The last major childhood disease remains and it's the worst of them all: nuclear war.
Quote by -Beverly Sills
I come from - I came from Wales, and it's a strong, butch society. We were in the war and all that. People didn't waste time feeling sorry for themselves. You had to get on with it. So my credo is get on with it. I don't waste time being soft. I'm not cold, but I don't like being, wasting my time with - life's too short.
Quote by -Anthony Hopkins
“The means of defence agst. foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at home.”
Quote by -James Madison
“War toys are scary. They have a rocket launcher with a bayonet attached, in case you miss.”
Quote by -Milton Berle
...secession, like any other REVOLUTIONARY ACT, may be morally justified by the extremity of oppression; but to call it a constitutional right is confounding the meaning of terms...
Quote by -Andrew Jackson
"Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided; but they are far better than certain kinds of peace."
Quote by -Theodore Roosevelt
"The very first essential for success is a perpetually constant and regular employment of violence."
Quote by -Adolf Hitler
"The leader of genius must have the ability to make different opponents appear as if they belonged to one category."
Quote by -Adolf Hitler
"I believe today that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the Almighty."
Quote by -Adolf Hitler
"As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice. -- Speeches"
Quote by -Adolf Hitler
"Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way round, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise."
Quote by -Adolf Hitler
"Anyone who sees and paints a sky green and fields blue ought to be sterilized. -- unsourced, suspected false quotation"
