War

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

War Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about War

1.
I have a deep sympathy with war, it so apes the gait and bearing of the soul.
Thoreau, Henry David

2.
The coward threatens when he is safe.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

3.
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

4.
The outcome of the war is in our hands; the outcome of words is in the council.
Homer

5.
There are two things which will always be very difficult for a democratic nation: to start a war and to end it.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

6.
Suppose they gave a war, and no one came?
Parrish-Bach, Leslie

7.
The greatest braggarts are usually the biggest cowards.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

8.
War is the trade of Kings.
Dryden, John

9.
It is the coward who fawns upon those above him. It is the coward who is insolent whenever he dares be so.
Junius

10.
Those who have been immersed in the tragedy of massive death during wartime, and who have faced it squarely, never allowing their senses and feelings to become numbed and indifferent, have emerged from their experiences with growth and humanness greater than that achieved through almost any other means.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

11.
Those who actually set out to see the fall of a city or those who choose to go to a front line, are obviously asking themselves to what extent they are cowards. But the tests they set themselves -- there is a dead body, can you bear to look at it? -- are nothing in comparison with the tests that are sprung on them. It is not the obvious tests that matter (do you go to pieces in a mortar attack?) but the unexpected ones (here is a man on the run, seeking your help -- can you face him honestly?).
Fenton, James

12.
War alone brings up to their highest tension all human energies and imposes the stamp of nobility upon the peoples who have the courage to make it.
Mussolini, Benito

13.
What a country calls its vital economic interests are not the things which enable its citizens to live, but the things which enable it to make war. Petrol is more likely than wheat to be a cause of international conflict.
Weil, Simone

14.
Vice is its own reward. It is virtue which, if it is to be marketed with consumer appeal, must carry Green Shield stamps.
Crisp, Quentin

15.
A light supper, a good night's sleep, and a fine morning have sometimes made a hero of the same man who, by an indigestion, a restless night, and a rainy morning would have proved a coward.
Stanhope, Philip Dormer

16.
Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.
Hemingway, Ernest

17.
People in general are scared to death of the war and all the exhibition have been a failure, because the rich - don't want to buy anything.
Frida Kahlo

18.
I see that old flagpole still stands. Have your troops hoist the colors to its peak, and let no enemy ever haul them down.
Macarthur, Douglas

19.
The idea of all-out nuclear war is unsettling.
Walter Goodman

20.
War -- what a waist of time. It's all about great achievements for the very few but hideous losses for the very many.

21.
It is better to be killed than frightened to death.
Surtees, Robert S.

22.
O can't you see, brother -- Death's a congested road for fighters now, and hero a cheap label.
Andrews, C. D.

23.
To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice.
Confucius

24.
Greater even than the pious man is he who eats that which is the fruit of his own toil; for scripture declares him twice-blessed.
Talmud, The

25.
War is regarded as nothing but the continuation of politics by other means.
Clausewitz, Karl Von

26.
War is not nice.
Barbara Bush

27.
Every gun that is fired, 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. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

28.
It is open to a war resister to judge between the combatants and wish success to the one who has justice on his side. By so judging he is more likely to bring peace between the two than by remaining a mere spectator.
Gandhi, Mahatma

29.
Our young people have come to look upon war as a kind of beneficent deity, which not only adds to the national honor but uplifts a nation and develops patriotism and courage. That is all true. But it is only fair, too, to let them know that the garments of the deity are filthy and that some of her influences debase and befoul a people.
Davis, Rebecca Harding

30.
That strange feeling we had in the war. Have you found anything in your lives since to equal it in strength? A sort of splendid carelessness it was, holding us together.
Coward, Noel

31.
No country has suffered so much from the ruins of war while being at peace as the American.
Dahlberg, Edward

32.
If any question why we died, tell them, because our fathers lied.
Kipling, Rudyard

33.
One of the chief misfortunes of honest people is that they are cowardly.
Voltaire

34.
There is hardly such a thing as a war in which it makes no difference who wins. Nearly always one side stands more or less for progress, the other side more or less for reaction.
Orwell, George

35.
It is well that war is so terrible - otherwise we would grow too fond of it.
Robert E. Lee

36.
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.

37.
The human race is a race of cowards; and I am not only marching in that procession, but carrying a banner.
Twain, Mark

38.
What vast additions to the conveniences and comforts of living might mankind have acquired, if the money spent in wars had been employed in works of public utility; what an extension of agriculture even to the tops of our mountains; what rivers rendered navigable, or joined by canals; what bridges, aqueducts, new roads, and other public works, edifices, and improvements might not have been obtained by spending those millions in doing good, which in the last war have been spent in doing mischief.
Franklin, Benjamin

39.
Wars teach us not to love our enemies, but to hate our allies.
W. L. George

40.
War is much too serious a matter to be entrusted to the military.
Georges Clemenceau

41.
Companies that give excellent service reward employees for providing it.

42.
Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.
Reagan, Ronald

43.
America is addicted to wars of distraction.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

44.
The savage in man is never quite eradicated.
Thoreau, Henry David

45.
The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.
Graves, Robert

46.
I have known war as few men now living know it. It's very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a means of settling international disputes.
Macarthur, Douglas

47.
How many feasible projects have miscarried through despondency, and been strangled in their birth by a cowardly imagination.
Collier, Jeremy

48.
Hell and damnation, life is such fun with a ragged greatcoat and a Jerry gun!
Blok, Alexander

49.
Like Olympic medals and tennis trophies, all they signified was that the owner had done something of no benefit to anyone more capably than everyone else.
Heller, Joseph

50.
War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebrums and smaller adrenal glands.
Mencken, H. L.
