War Quotes
-
In war, men are nothing, one man is everything.
Napoleon Bonaparte
-
We absolutely do need to make sure that our borders are secure. But what we need to realize and remember is that ICE was established in 2003 right at the same time as the Patriot Act, the AUMF, the Iraq War - and we look back at a lot of that time and legislation as a mistake now. And I think that ICE is right there as a part of it.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
-
Burn to be great, Pay not thy praise to lofty things alone. The plains are everlasting as the hills, The bard cannot have two pursuits; aught else Comes on the mind with the like shock as though Two worlds had gone to war, and met in air.
Philip James Bailey
-
With the danger of terrorism and war spreading in the world, now is the right moment to stop and reconsider our actions and do everything possible to bring an end to the fighting, be it in your own homeland, neighboring countries, or in your region.
Dalia Grybauskaite
-
The poetry of heroism appeals irresistibly to those who don't go to a war, and even more to those whom the war is making enormously wealthy. It's always so.
Louis-Ferdinand Celine
-
That’s the problem with all of this. No matter how hard I try, I can’t make it perfect. I can’t keep it in a bottle, can’t ignore reality. Chemicals are involved, the kind scientists try to synthesize and put into pill form, and they’re making tremendous advances every day. They’re winning the war against love. It’s probably inevitable now. There are only two ways to see the world: either no one and nothing is connected to anything, or we are all a random series of carbon molecules connected to each other. Tell me if there’s room for love in either of those scenarios.
Pete Wentz
Fall Out Boy
-
Gold is the key, whatever else we try; and that sweet metal aids the conqueror in every case, in love as well as war.
Moliere
-
Foreigners assume that because of the war, the two sides must dislike each other more than West and East Germans did. The opposite is the case. Some of my students say, 'The North would never attack us, we’re the same people,' as if the war never happened. And North Korea would now be just as committed to unification if it hadn’t.
Brian Reynolds Myers
-
War can only be qualified by its object, and there is neither foreign war nor civil war, there is only just or unjust war.
Victor Hugo
-
War is to be ranked among the most dreadful calamities which fall on a guilty world; and, what deserves consideration, it tends to multiply and perpetuate itself without end. It feeds and grows on the blood which it sheds. The passions, from which it springs, gain strength and fury from indulgence.
William Ellery Channing
-
Only World War II, which mobilized 10 million draftees, could by any stretch of the imagination be called a people's war.
John Gregory Dunne
-
Fortunately, just when things were blackest, the war broke out.
Joseph Heller
