Transcript of The Horror Of War
1
2
A great war leaves the country with three armies - an army of cripples, an army of mourners, and an army of
thieves. German Proverb
3
The world has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war that we know about peace, more about killing that we
know about living. Omar Bradley
4
All wars are follies, very expensive and very mischievous ones. In my opinion, there never was a
good war or a bad peace. When will mankind be convinced and agree to settle their difficulties by
arbitration? Benjamin Franklin
5
The refuge of the morally, intellectually, artistically and economically bankrupt is war.
Martin H. Fischer
6
Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will
think hard before starting a war. Otto Von Bismark
7
One is left with the horrible feeling now that war settles nothing; that to win a war is as
disastrous as to lose one.Agatha Christie
8
“I cannot believe that war is the
best solution. No one won the last war and no one
will win the next.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
9
If we don't end war, war will end us. H. G. Wells
10
The basic problems facing the world today are not susceptible to a military solution.
John F. Kennedy
11
There is nothing that war has ever achieved that we could not
better achieve without it. Henry Ellis
12
War does not determine who is right - only who is left.
Bertrand Russell
13
War is a most uneconomical, foolish, poor
arrangement, a bloody enrichment of that soil which bears the sweet flower of peace.
M. E. W. SHERWOOD
14
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a
theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER
15
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
16
Even if we are spared destruction by war, our lives will have to change if we want to save life from self-
destruction. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
17
War is so unjust and ugly that all who wage it must try to stifle the voice of conscience within themselves.
Leo Tolstoy
