The war... was an unnecessary condition of affairs, and might have been avoided if forebearance and wisdom had been practiced on both sides.
Robert E. Lee
What a cruel thing war is... to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors.
Robert E. Lee
War is war. The only good human being is a dead one.
George Orwell
Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first.
William Glasser
Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.
George Orwell
Every war when it comes, or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self-defense against a homicidal maniac.
George Orwell
War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.
George Orwell
Serious sport is war minus the shooting.
George Orwell
The essential act of war is destruction, not necessarily of human lives, but of the products of human labor.
George Orwell
War is evil, but it is often the lesser evil.
George Orwell
War is a way of shattering to pieces... materials which might otherwise be used to make the masses too comfortable and... too intelligent.
George Orwell
There is hardly such a thing as a war in which it makes no difference who wins. Nearly always one side stands more of less for progress, the other side more or less for reaction.
George Orwell
The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it.
George Orwell
Oceania was at war with Eurasia; therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.
George Orwell
Marriage is an adventure, like going to war.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
A man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over... is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
The only defensible war is a war of defense.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
What is more immoral than war?
Marquis de Sade
When you try to find funding for a VVA function, it doesn't seem like it's any trouble at all. People come out of the woodwork with their money to help out because we went over and fought a war.
R. Lee Ermey
The biggest problem was the politicians knew nothing about fighting a war.
R. Lee Ermey
