- Change theme
- I abhor war and view it as the greatest scourge of mankind.
- Thomas Jefferson on War
- I always found the extraordinary loss of life in the First World War very moving. I remember learning about it as a very young child, as an eight- or nine-year-old, asking my teachers what poppies were for. Every year the teachers would suddenly wear these red paper flowers in their lapels, and I would say 'What does that mean?'
- Tom Hiddleston on War
- I am against all war.
- Sophia Loren on War
- I am an opponent of Saddam Hussein, but an opponent also, of the sanctions that have killed a million Iraqi children and an opponent of the United States' apparent desire to plunge the Middle East into a new and devastating war.
- George Galloway on War
- I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting.
- Winston Churchill on War
- I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.
- Albert Einstein on War
- I am one who believes that we are, in fact, engaged in a worldwide war against terrorism. We must have the serenity to accept the fact that war is not going to go away if we ignore it.
- Robert Foster Bennett on War
- I am still profoundly troubled by the war in Nicaragua. The United States launched a covert war against another nation in violation of international law, a war that was wrong and immoral.
- Bianca Jagger on War
- I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell.
- William Tecumseh Sherman on War
- I beg Osama to stop warring. He is a Muslim, and Islam means peace. Nobody wins in a war... I wish I were tapped in the problem about Iraq. I knew Saddam enough that I could have talked him into surrendering. But it's too late.
- Imelda Marcos on War
- I began to speak well at a very advanced age - 15, 16, 17 years old. It was psychological: the trauma of war, my family and growing up on my own. I was more or less a street kid.
- Roberto Cavalli on War
- I believe that political correctness can be a form of linguistic fascism, and it sends shivers down the spine of my generation who went to war against fascism.
- P. D. James on War
- I believe the war on terror is the vital discussion of this decade and of our generation, probably. To win the war on terror, you need a good offense and a good defense. On defense, I regret to say, basically, this administration has not come close to doing what is necessary.
- Charles Schumer on War
- I can not believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.
- Eleanor Roosevelt on War
- I can tell you this: If I'm ever in a position to call the shots, I'm not going to rush to send somebody else's kids into a war.
- George H. W. Bush on War
- I can't go to war with paparazzi.
- Daniel Craig on War
- I cannot think of any circumstances in which a government can go to war without the support of parliament.
- Tony Blair on War
- I certainly notice the vitality in Belfast, which wasn't there in the Seventies. There was a war going on then. Now there are cranes everywhere. There really is a sense of renewal and hope.
- Liam Neeson on War
- I consider Bush's decision to call for a war against terrorism a serious mistake. He is elevating these criminals to the status of war enemies, and one cannot lead a war against a network if the term war is to retain any definite meaning.
- Jurgen Habermas on War
- I could have ended the war in a month. I could have made North Vietnam look like a mud puddle.
- Barry Goldwater on War
- I could start a war in 30 seconds. But some countries spend 100 years trying to find peace. Just like good manners, peace has to be learned.
- Sylvester Stallone on War
- I couldn't be happier that President Bush has stood up for having served in the National Guard, because I can finally put an end to all those who questioned my motives for enlisting in the Army Reserve at the height of the Vietnam War.
- Larry David on War
- I deliberately did not read anything about the Vietnam War because I felt the politics of the war eclipsed what happened to the veterans. The politics were irrelevant to what this memorial was.
- I did a production of 'Journey's End,' an RC Sherriff play about World War I, at the Edinburgh Festival. I was 18 and it was the first time that people I knew and loved and respected came up to me after the show and said, 'You know, you could really do this if you wanted to.'
- Tom Hiddleston on War
- I did frequently refer to my war record in World War II, but not in any flamboyant way.
- George McGovern on War
- I didn't know a time when there wasn't a war because I spent all my time from the age of two or three to eight in a coal cellar really.
- David Bailey on War
- I do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the atomic bomb. Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth will be killed.
- Albert Einstein on War
- I do not believe that the men who served in uniform in Vietnam have been given the credit they deserve. It was a difficult war against an unorthodox enemy.
- William Westmoreland on War
- I don't believe war is a way to solve problems. I think it's wrong. I don't have respect for the people that made the decisions to go on with war. I don't have that much respect for Bush. He's about war, I'm not about war - a lot of people aren't about war.
- Avril Lavigne on War
- I don't feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct Dances, but they wouldn't do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the Civil War sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched.
- Kevin Costner on War
- I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace an interlude during war.
- Georges Clemenceau on War
- I don't know why you use a fancy French word like detente when there's a good English phrase for it - cold war.
- Golda Meir on War
- I don't like war. I particularly don't like the celebration of war, which I think the administration is a little bit guilty of.
- Neil Young on War
- I don't oppose all wars. What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war.
- Barack Obama on War
- I don't think the Middle East could afford another war.
- King Abdullah II on War
- I don't think the war in Afghanistan was ruthlessly enough waged.
- Christopher Hitchens on War
- I ended the war a horse ahead.
- Nathan Bedford Forrest on War
- I feel like the people from Iceland have a different relationship with their country than other places. Most Icelandic people are really proud to be from there, and we don't have embarrassments like World War II where we were cruel to other people.
- I feel like war should occur only for the most vital and necessary reasons, and only then.
- Sharon Stone on War
- I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition.
- Fidel Castro on War
- I found that I was getting a warm reception for my message of freeing you from the income tax, releasing you from Social Security, ending the insane war on drugs, restoring gun rights, and reducing the federal government to just its constitutional functions.
- Harry Browne on War
- I frankly don't think it's going to be a successful war on terrorism until law enforcement agencies like the FBI are willing to share with other law enforcement agencies. If they can't share information, there's no way this war can be won.
- Patty Hearst on War
- I get offered a World War II movie at least once a week just because I speak German and was born there. I have always stayed away from it because I didn't want to be put into that box.
- Diane Kruger on War
- I guess if people couldn't profit from war I don't think there would be war.
- Lily Tomlin on War
- I had just turned 10-years-old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and plunged America into World War II.
- Dan Rather on War
- I had nearly finished school because I was making effort not that bad on that. But there was a law in Germany after the war. You could not make your final examination before 18, so lots of people who were late because of the way had to do it first.
- Karl Lagerfeld on War
- I had seen people who had lost everything and everyone they loved to war, famine, and natural disasters.
- Chelsea Clinton on War
- I had two family members involved in World War I: two great-uncles. One of them is on a memorial in France. And the other was a trench runner who survived the war. The average life span of a trench runner was 36 hours, but he survived the whole war.
- Ben Barnes on War
- I had very good support from Democrats and Republicans all throughout my administration. I had a very high batting average. We added more jobs per year in my four years than any other president since the Second World War.
- Jimmy Carter on War
- I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower on War
