War Quotes

When every autumn people said it could not last through the winter, and when every spring there was still no end in sight, only the hope that out of it all some good would accrue to mankind kept men and nations fighting. When at last it was over, the war had many diverse results and one dominant one transcending all others: disillusion Picture Quote #1

If ordinary people really knew that consciousness and not matter is the link that connects us with each other and the world, then their views about war and peace, environmental pollution, social justice, religous values, and all other human endeavors would change radically Picture Quote #1

So many of the models of courage we’ve had, ones that are still taught to boys and girls, are about going out to slay the dragon, to kill. It’s a courage that’s born out of fear, anger, and hate. But there’s this other kind of courage. It’s the courage to risk your life, not in war, not in battle, not out of fear... but out of love and a sense of injustice that has to be challenged. It takes far more courage to challenge unjust authority without violence than it takes to kill all the monsters in all the stories told to children about the meaning of bravery Picture Quote #1

If we lose the war in the air we lose the war and lose it quickly Picture Quote #1

The courage we need is not the fortitude to be obedient in the service of an unjust war, to help conceal lies, to do our job for a boss who has usurped power and is acting as an outlaw government. It is the courage at last to face honestly the truth and reality of what we are doing in the world and act responsibly to change it Picture Quote #1

I have declared war on the rich who prosper on our poverty, the politicians who lie to us with smiling faces, and all the mindless, heartless, robots who protect them and their property Picture Quote #1

Sports is to war as pornography is to sex. We get to exercise some ancient, ancient drives Picture Quote #1

Prostitution is the supreme triumph of capitalism. When the sex war is won prostitutes should be shot as collaborators for their terrible betrayal of all women, for the moral tarring and feathering they give indigenous women who have had the bad luck to live in what they make their humping ground Picture Quote #1

Winning the war on terrorism will also require a level of moral clarity that can provide a vision for struggling people and nations everywhere Picture Quote #1

Polarization affects families and groups of friends. Its a paralyzing situation. A civil war of opinion Picture Quote #1

The corporations that profit from permanent war need us to be afraid. Fear stops us from objecting to government spending on a bloated military. Fear means we will not ask unpleasant questions of those in power. Fear permits the government to operate in secret. Fear means we are willing to give up our rights and liberties for promises of security. The imposition of fear ensures that the corporations that wrecked the country cannot be challenged. Fear keeps us penned in like livestock Picture Quote #1

The rush of battle is often a potent and lethal addiction, for war is a drug Picture Quote #1

If I should come out of this war alive, I will have more luck than brains Picture Quote #1

If I were to speak of war, it would not be to show you the glories of conquering armies but the mischief and misery they strew in their tracks; and how, while they marched on with tread of iron and plumes proudly tossing in the breeze, some one must follow closely in their steps, crouching to the earth, toiling in the rain and darkness, shelterless themselves, with no thought of pride or glory, fame or praise, or reward; hearts breaking with pity, faces bathed in tears and hands in blood. This is the side which history never shows Picture Quote #1

Nowadays, hoy en día, with our world full of war and violence and lack of love, a world full of greed, a world of domination, grasping power, venal stupidity, real evil, don’t get me started, it’s good to know that a conversation about tacos will always engender a sense of comfort and happiness. If only we could sit down at a big round world table and eat tacos in a spirit of love we might begin to work on world peace! Picture Quote #1

The greatest threat to peace is the barrage of rightist propaganda portraying war as decent, honorable, and patriotic Picture Quote #1

Frankly, I had enjoyed the war… and why do people want peace if the war is so much fun? Picture Quote #1

Some day I’d like to cover a war in a country as ugly as war itself Picture Quote #1

Capoeira is a game, it is dance, it is fight, it is of war and it is of peace, it is of culture, of music, it is a portion of things Picture Quote #1

Western governments... will lose the war against dealers unless efforts are switched to prevention and therapy... All penalties for drug users should be dropped... Making drug abuse a crime is useless and even dangerous... Every year we seize more and more drugs and arrest more and more dealers but at the same time the quantity available in our countries still increases... Police are losing the drug battle worldwide Picture Quote #1

The cure is care. Caring for others is the practice of peace. Caring becomes as important as curing. Caring produces the cure, not the reverse. Caring about nuclear war and its victims is the beginning of a cure for our obsession with war. Peace does not comes through strength. Quite the opposite: Strength comes through peace. The practices of peace strengthen us for every vicissitude... The task is immense! Picture Quote #1

If we’d lost the war, we’d all have been prosecuted as war criminals Picture Quote #1

A preacher was operated on for a hernia. As this was about the time of the first world war he was given ether. As he was coming out of the anesthetic a fire broke out in the building next door. As the flames began to show through the hospital windows the nurse pulled the shades down. She didn’t want the preacher to think his operation had been a failure Picture Quote #1

Just because war is hell doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun Picture Quote #1

Now I have shed my first blood. I feel no qualms, no pride, no remorse. There is only a weary indifference that will follow me throughout the war Picture Quote #1

In a war you have to take up arms and people will get killed, and I can support that kind of action by petrol bombing and bombs under cars, and probably at a later stage, the shooting of vivisectors on their doorsteps. It’s a war, and there’s no other way you can stop vivisectors Picture Quote #1

No one wins a war. It is true, there are degrees of loss, but no one wins Picture Quote #1

The war keeps taking pieces of me anyway. Makes the rest of me harder to hit Picture Quote #1

To other women the choice of clothes was a form of ingenious exhibition, a shameless seduction. To me, dresses were like a breastplate that I put on to set off to war against this life Picture Quote #1

You know who’s going to inherit the earth? Arms dealers. Because everyone else is too busy killing each other. That’s the secret to survival. Never go to war, especially with yourself Picture Quote #1
