Wanton killing of innocent civilians is terrorism, not a war against terrorism.

Great is the guilt of an unnecessary war.

Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows.

It is only the dead who have seen the end of war

If you try to cure evil with evil you will add more pain to your fate.

War is over ... If you want it.

If we don't end war, war will end us.

When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.

People are free to campaign and they will be free to vote. There won't be any soldiers, you know, at the queues. Anyone who has the right to vote is free to go and cast his vote anywhere in his own area, in his own constituency.

A person may cause evil to others not only by his actions but by his inaction, and in either case he is justly accountable to them for the injury.

Never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal.

Ideas are far more powerful than guns. We don't let our people have guns. Why should we let them have ideas?

A conqueror is always a lover of peace.

The end move in politics is always to pick up a gun.

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Everyone’s worried about stopping terrorism. Well, there’s really an easy way: Stop participating in it.

Never was anything great achieved without danger

There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.

Occasionally the tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants.

Hatred is gained as much by good works as by evil.

Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
