Let Us Remember!

I have seen war. I have seen war on land and sea. I have seen blood running from the wounded. I have seen the dead in the mud. I have seen cities destroyed. I have seen children starving. I have seen the agony of mothers and wives. I hate war.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

There never was a good war or a bad peace.

Benjamin Franklin

Can anything be stupider than that a man has the right to kill me because he lives on the other side of a river and his ruler has a quarrel with mine, though I have not quarrelled with him?

Blaise Pascal

Peace is not the absence of war; it is a virtue; a state of mind; a disposition for benevolence; confidence; and justice.

Baruch Spinoza

In peace the sons bury their fathers, but in war the fathers bury their sons.

Croesus

The real and lasting victories are those of peace, and not of war.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Edmund Burke

It is not only the living who are killed in war.

Isaac Asimov
