War Quotes
-
We say we embrace humanity, but what does that mean? We are all defined by our limits, so to what extent can we embrace all this? Because we all contain within ourselves equally the capacity for kindness, as much as for cruelty or evil. And the best of us are able to suppress those baser impulses, instincts. That's the war within.
Todd Solondz
-
There is one thing no people have ever done; that is, to oppose a threatening war with intelligent and vigorous purpose some years before it was due to arrive.
Carrie Chapman Catt
-
We are the ones responsible to determine whether the war that our marines, soldiers and airmen are fighting in is worth the cause.

My poor little New Zealand: exporting frozen meat in peace, live meat in war.
James Henderson

If Star Wars had been released in the late '60s, or late '80s, or late '90s, adjusting for technology, it fits spectacularly well.
Cass Sunstein
-
Now that I've seen what war is ... I know that everybody, if one day it should end, ought to ask himself: "And what shall we make of the fallen? Why are they dead?" I wouldn't know what to say. Not now, at any rate. Nor does it seem to me that the others know. Perhaps only dead know, and only for them is the war really over.
Cesare Pavese
-
Declare it. Just the same way we declare war. That is how we will have peace... we just need to declare it.
John Lennon
The Beatles
-
Man's oldest and least reputable occupation - war.
Barbara Mary Ward, Baroness Jackson of Lodsworth
-
We must earn the peace we seek just as we earned victory in the war, not by wishful thinking but by realistic effort. At no time in our history has unity among our people been so vital as it is at the present time. Unity of purpose, unity of effort, and unity of spirit are essential to accomplish the task before us.
Harry S Truman
-
100,000 soldiers are reported to have died in the Iraqi war. If you count 100 relatives of each soldier, it means that practically there are millions of people who now have antagonism toward the white people of America. These Arab people will remember this country whose main religion is Christianity, who came and destroyed all Iraqi facilities and industry. They won't easily forget this.
Sun Myung Moon
-
There is no such thing as closure for soldiers who have survived a war. They have an obligation, a sacred duty, to remember those who fell in battle beside them all their days and to bear witness to the insanity that is war.
Hal Moore
-
I had a visceral connection to the period [of Korean War]. By visceral I suppose I mean emotional. But every fiction requires so much that is not that so I did a lot of other research and a lot of thinking, a lot of struggling there.
Chang-Rae Lee
-
On reflection, some things do super well because they hit with the time. Some things do super well because they are able to activate a kind of echo chamber or bandwagon or cascade - they didn't particularly hit with the time. Some things are just too astonishingly good to not hit the top. Those three explanations, with respect to the Star Wars phenomenon, seem to me all to pass the plausibility test, and to explore them, with respect to Star Wars, I think casts light not just on the saga of our time, but also on everything about our culture.
Cass Sunstein
-
In war, everything changes. You are very selective of what you do because everything you do can be the last thing you do in your life.
Haris Pasovic
-
For Star Wars, they had me tape down my breasts because there are no breasts in space. I have some. I have two.
Carrie Fisher
-
We are sick of war, we don't want to fight, And yet we gorge ourselves upon the dead.
George Bernard Shaw
