I am utterly convinced that Science and Peace will triumph over Ignorance and War, that nations will eventually unite not to destroy but to edify, and that the future will belong to those who have done the most for the sake of suffering humanity.
You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war.
You wait for the war to happen like vultures. If you want to help, prevent the war. Don’t save the remnants. Save them all.
War seldom ever leads to good results.
War is only a cowardly escape from the problems of peace.
War is not a life: it is a situation, one which may neither be ignored nor accepted, a problem to be met with ambush and stratagem, enveloped or scattered.
War is evil, and it is often the lesser evil.
War has a momentum of its own and it carries you away from all thoughtful intentions when you get into it.
War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.
Total war is no longer only between all members of one national community and all those of another: it is also total because it will very likely set the whole world up in flames.
To hold a pen is to be at war.
There never was a good War, or a bad Peace.
