War and Peace

God is on the side not of the heavy battalions, but of the best shots.

These two nations have been at war over a few acres of snow near Canada, and … they are spending on this fine struggle more than Canada itself is worth.

Bella, horrida bella,

Just rejoice at that news and congratulate our armed forces and the Marines. Rejoice!

This is the beginning of the end.

War is capitalism with the gloves off.

Marriage is like life in this—that it is a field of battle, and not a bed of roses.

You’ll never have a quiet world till you knock the patriotism out of the human race.

In the arts of peace Man is a bungler.

Nothing is ever done in this world until men are prepared to kill one another if it is not done.

Oh, you are a very poor soldier—a chocolate cream soldier!

Then, then we’ll end that stupid crime, that devil’s madness—War.

And the stern joy which warriors feel

‘He’s a cheery old card,’ grunted Harry to Jack

When the rich wage war it’s the poor who die.

The work, my friend, is peace. More than an end of this war—an end to the beginnings of all wars.

Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.

Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars.

I have seen war … I hate war.

I cannot believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.

Died some, pro patria,

On all the line a sudden vengeance waits,

Let us sleep now.

I am the enemy you killed, my friend.
