Concentration of executive power, unless it's very temporary and for specific circumstances, let's say fighting world war two, it's an assault on democracy Picture Quote #1

If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post war American president would have been hanged Picture Quote #1

Peace demands the most heroic labor and the most difficult sacrifice. It demands greater heroism than war. It demands greater fidelity to the truth and a much more perfect purity of conscience Picture Quote #1

When I think now of all the lunatics I knew at Baryton's, I can't help suspecting that the only two manifestations of our innermost being are war and insanity, those two absolute nightmares Picture Quote #1

The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war Picture Quote #1

We don't tend to write about disease in fiction - not just teen novels but all American novels - because it doesn't fit in with our idea of the heroic romantic epic. There is room only for sacrifice, heroism, war, politics and family struggle Picture Quote #1

The mother's battle for her child with sickness, with poverty, with war, with all the forces of exploitation and callousness that cheapen human life needs to become a common human battle, waged in love and in the passion for survival Picture Quote #1

Every war results from the struggle for markets and spheres of influence, and every war is sold to the public by professional liars and totally sincere religious maniacs, as a Holy Crusade to save God and Goodness from Satan and Evil Picture Quote #1

Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man Picture Quote #1

Sweets with sweets war not, joy delights in joy: why lov'st thou that which thou receiv'st not gladly, or else receiv'st with pleasure thine annoy? Picture Quote #1
