Albert Einstein
A country cannot simultaneously prepare and prevent war.

Gandhi
What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?


George McGovern

Issac Asimov
Violence is the first refuge of the incompetent.


Larry Reeves

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism, and militarism.


Peter Weiss

Plato
Only the dead have seen the end of war.


Ronald Reagan
