individually and nationally, must choose: total love or total war.

world will never have lasting peace so long as men reserve for war the finest
human qualities. Peace, no less than war, requires idealism and self-sacrifice
and a righteous and dynamic faith.

kill in war is not a whit better than to commit ordinary murder. --Albert

I hate war as
only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its
futility and its stupidity. -- Dwight
D. Eisenhower Every
gun that is made, 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. -- Dwight
D. Eisenhower "Disarmament,
with mutual honor and confidence, is a continuing imperative. Together we must
learn how to compose differences, not with arms, but with intellect and decent
purpose." -- Dwight
D. Eisenhower |  |
When people speak
to you about a preventive war, you tell them to go and fight it. After my experience,
I have come to hate war. War settles nothing.

is nothing that war has ever achieved we could not better achieve without it.

have fought in a war to love peace.

"Our principle is, and our
practices have always been, to seek peace, and ensue it, and to follow after righteousness
and the knowledge of God, seeking the good and welfare, and doing that which tends
to the peace of all...All bloody principles and practices we do utterly deny,
with all outward wars, and strife, and fightings with outward weapons, for any
end, or under any pretence whatsoever..." -- George
