Wars come and go, but my soldiers stay eternal

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

Do not let us speak of darker days; let us speak rather of sterner days. These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.

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

Brutality to an animal is cruelty to mankind - it is only the difference in the victim.

The central defect of evil is not sin but the refusal to acknowledge sin.

An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.

In war, as in life, it is often necessary, when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.

There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.

What is evil? - Whatever springs from weakness.

Theres class warfare, all right, but its my class, the rich class, thats making war, and were winning.

There is a road from the eye to the heart that does not go through the intellect.

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.

War is over ... If you want it.

All warfare is based on deception.

Never was anything great achieved without danger

The earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed

War isnt declared in the name of God; it is a human affair entirely.

When men take up arms to set other men free, there is something sacred and holy in the warfare.
