Motivational Quotes
War
I have a deep sympathy with war, it so apes the gait and bearing of the soul.
Best Quotes about War
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
Cowards can never be moral.
Gandhi, Mahatma
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
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
I had supposed until that time that it was quite common for parents to love their children, but the war persuaded me that it is a rare exception. I had supposed that most people liked money better than almost anything else, but I discovered that they liked destruction even better. I had supposed that intellectuals frequently loved truth, but I found here again that not ten per cent of them prefer truth to popularity.
Russell, Bertrand
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
The outcome of the war is in our hands; the outcome of words is in the council.
Homer
The reward of great men is that, long after they have died, one is not quite sure that they are dead.
Renard, Jules
Covetousness like jealousy, when it has taken root, never leaves a person, but with their life. Cowardice is the dread of what will happen.
Epictetus
Always reward your long hours of labor and toil in the very best way, surrounded by your family. Nurture their love carefully, remembering that your children need models, not critics, and your own progress will hasten when you constantly strive to present your best side to your children. And even if you have failed at all else in the eyes of the world, if you have a loving family, you are a success.
Mandino, Og
War is not nice.
Barbara Bush
Those who dare to interpret God's will must never claim Him as an asset for one nation or group rather than another. War springs from the love and loyalty which should be offered to God being applied to some God substitute, one of the most dangerous being nationalism.
Runcie, Robert
Morality is contraband in war.
Gandhi, Mahatma
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
Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.
Hemingway, Ernest
The way to win an atomic war is to make certain it never starts.
Omar Bradley
Blunders are an inescapable feature of war, because choice in military affairs lies generally between the bad and the worse.
Massie, Allan
Cry havoc! and let slip the dogs of war, that this foul deed shall smell above the earth with carrion men, groaning for burial.
Shakespeare, William
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.
Hell and damnation, life is such fun with a ragged greatcoat and a Jerry gun!
Blok, Alexander
Sometime they'll give a war and nobody will come.
Carl Sandburg
Men are at war with each other because each man is at war with himself.
Meehan, Francis
War has been the most convenient pseudo-solution for the problems of twentieth-century capitalism. It provides the incentives to modernization and technological revolution which the market and the pursuit of profit do only fitfully and by accident, it makes the unthinkable (such as votes for women and the abolition of unemployment) not merely thinkable but practicable. What is equally important, it can re-create communities of men and give a temporary sense to their lives by uniting them against foreigners and outsiders. This is an achievement beyond the power of the private enterprise economy when left to itself.
Hobsbawm, E. J.
Wars are made to make debt.
Pound, Ezra
The problem in defense is how far you can go without destroying from within what you are trying to defend from without.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.
The idea of all-out nuclear war is unsettling.
Walter Goodman
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.
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
Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to the eyes of men.
Westcott, Bishop
A coward gets scared and quits. A hero gets scared, but still goes on.
Neither enemy faces, nor the mothers that love them, come to mind when one is thinking of nothing but endeavouring to survive. Philosophising about war is useless under fire.
Linda Berdoll
Companies that give excellent service reward employees for providing it.
War -- what a waist of time. It's all about great achievements for the very few but hideous losses for the very many.
The only winner in the War of 1812 was Tchaikovsky.
Solomon Short
It is the coward who fawns upon those above him. It is the coward who is insolent whenever he dares be so.
Junius
One day President Roosevelt told me that he was asking publicly for suggestions about what the war should be called. I said at once'The Unnecessary War'.
Sir Winston Churchill
War: first, one hopes to win; then one expects the enemy to lose; then, one is satisfied that he too is suffering; in the end, one is surprised that everyone has lost.
Kraus, Karl
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
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
The man who is aware of himself is henceforward independent; and he is never bored, and life is only too short, and he is steeped through and through with a profound yet temperate happiness.
Woolf, Virginia
A coward is much more exposed to quarrels than a man of spirit.
Jefferson, Thomas
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
War is thus divine in itself, since it is a law of the world. War is divine through its consequences of a supernatural nature which are as much general as particular. War is divine in the mysterious glory that surrounds it and in the no less inexplicable attraction that draws us to it. War is divine by the manner in which it breaks out.
Maistre, Joseph De
War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow.
King Jr. Martin Luther
It is one of the most beautiful compensations in life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
War has always been the grand sagacity of every spirit which has grown too inward and too profound; its curative power lies even in the wounds one receives.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
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
Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.
Sir Winston Churchill
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
Suppose they gave a war, and no one came?
Parrish-Bach, Leslie
