Fear has its use but cowardice has none.
- Gandhi, Mahatma
War Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about War

1.
I believe in compulsory cannibalism. If people were forced to eat what they killed, there would be no more wars.
Hoffman, Abbie

2.
The cannon thunders... limbs fly in all directions... one can hear the groans of victims and the howling of those performing the sacrifice... it's Humanity in search of happiness.
Baudelaire, Charles

3.
From the happy expression on their faces you might have supposed that they welcomed the war. I have met with men who loved stamps, and stones, and snakes, but I could not imagine any man loving war.
Asquith, Margot

4.
How is the world ruled and led to war? Diplomats lie to journalists and believe these lies when they see them in print.
Kraus, Karl

5.
Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
Kennedy, John F.

6.
Man gives every reason for his conduct save one, every excuse for his crimes save one, every plea for his safety save one; and that one is his cowardice.
Shaw, George Bernard

7.
The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on.
Ulysses S. Grant

8.
To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice.
Confucius

9.
It is far easier to make war than to make peace.
Clemenceau, Georges

10.
Open-mindedness should not be fostered because, as Scripture teaches, Truth is great and will prevail, nor because, as Milton suggests, Truth will always win in a free and open encounter. It should be fostered for its own sake.
Rorty, Richard

11.
God's delays are not God's denials.
Schuller, Robert H.

12.
As long as war is regarded as wicked, it will always have it's fascination. When it is looked upon as vulgar, it will cease to be popular.
Wilde, Oscar

13.
Suppose they gave a war, and no one came?
Parrish-Bach, Leslie

14.
Are wars... anything but the means whereby a nation's problems are set, where creation is stimulated -- there you have adventure. But there is no adventure in heads-or-tails, in betting that the toss will come out of life or death. War is not an adventure. It is a disease. It is like typhus.
Saint-Exupery, Antoine De

15.
Frankly, I'd like to see the government get out of war altogether and leave the whole field to private industry.
Heller, Joseph

16.
There are several good protections against temptation, but the surest is cowardice.
Twain, Mark

17.
The idea of all-out nuclear war is unsettling.
Walter Goodman

18.
The reward of great men is that, long after they have died, one is not quite sure that they are dead.
Renard, Jules

19.
Blunders are an inescapable feature of war, because choice in military affairs lies generally between the bad and the worse.
Massie, Allan

20.
War is the supreme drama of a completely mechanized society.
Mumford, Lewis

21.
War -- what a waist of time. It's all about great achievements for the very few but hideous losses for the very many.

22.
The human race is a race of cowards; and I am not only marching in that procession, but carrying a banner.
Twain, Mark

23.
The effects of our actions may be postponed but they are never lost. There is an inevitable reward for good deeds and an inescapable punishment for bad. Meditate upon this truth, and seek always to earn good wages from Destiny.
Fu Wu Ming

24.
Most people grow old within a small circle of ideas, which they have not discovered for themselves. There are perhaps less wrong-minded people than thoughtless.
Vauvenargues, Marquis De

25.
Hell and damnation, life is such fun with a ragged greatcoat and a Jerry gun!
Blok, Alexander

26.
Wars are made to make debt.
Pound, Ezra

27.
No country has suffered so much from the ruins of war while being at peace as the American.
Dahlberg, Edward

28.
Faint heart never won fair lady.
Cervantes, Miguel De

29.
A wage hike is very hard to take away, but bonuses and profit-sharing can disappear very quickly in hard times...More people are realizing that bonuses look like raises, but really aren't.
Bauman, Al

30.
War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebrums and smaller adrenal glands.
Mencken, H. L.

31.
The cowards never started -- and the weak died along the way.

32.
If we justify war, it is because all peoples always justify the traits of which they find themselves possessed, not because war will bear an objective examination of its merits.
Benedict, Ruth

33.
War is not its own end, except in some catastrophic slide into absolute damnation. It's peace that's wanted. Some better peace than the one you started with.
Lois McMaster Bujold

34.
The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters -- not to talk in armies and nations and numbers -- but to track it home.
Lawrence, D. H.

35.
My valor is certainly going, it is sneaking off! I feel it oozing out as it were, at the palms of my hands!
Sheridan, Richard Brinsley

36.
War is a cowardly escape from the problems of peace.
Thomas Mann

37.
The real trouble with war (modern war) is that it gives no one a chance to kill the right people.
Pound, Ezra

38.
If the frontline people do count, you couldn't prove it by examining the reward systems in most organizations.
Albrecht, Karl

39.
Everyone in our culture wants to win a prize. Perhaps that is the grand lesson we have taken with us from kindergarten in the age of perversions of Dewey-style education: everyone gets a ribbon, and praise becomes a meaningless narcotic to soothe egoistic distemper.
Early, Gerald

40.
A just war is hospitable to every self-deception on the part of those waging it, none more than the certainty of virtue, under whose shelter every abomination can be committed with a clear conscience.
Cockburn, Alexander

41.
The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.
Twain, Mark

42.
War seems to be one of the most salutary phenomena for the culture of human nature; and it is not without regret that I see it disappearing more and more from the scene.
Humboldt, Karl Wilhelm Von

43.
The chief reason warfare is still with us is neither a secret death-wish of the human species, nor an irrepressible instinct of aggression, nor, finally and more plausibly, the serious economic and social dangers inherent in disarmament, but the simple fact that no substitute for this final arbiter in international affairs has yet appeared on the political scene.
Arendt, Hannah

44.
You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war.
Albert Einstein

45.
A self-respecting nation is ready for anything, including war, except for a renunciation of its option to make war.
Weil, Simone

46.
War begets quiet, quiet idleness, idleness disorder, disorder ruin; likewise ruin order, order virtue, virtue glory, and good fortune.
Raleigh, Sir Walter

47.
It is well that war is so terrible - otherwise we would grow too fond of it.
Robert E. Lee

48.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice -- is often the means of their regeneration.
Mill, John Stuart

49.
I do not know with what weapons World War 3 will be fought, but World War 4 will be fought with sticks and stones.
Einstein, Albert

50.
The sinews of war, a limitless supply of money.
Cicero, Marcus T.
