Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.

The evils which sapped the nation's strength had all been wrought in the name of religion.

Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.

What is evil? - Whatever springs from weakness.

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

There was never a bad peace or a good war.

Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.

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

Never ascribe to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.

All warfare is based on deception.

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

All the war-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting.

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

When there's a person, there's a problem. When there's no person, there's no problem

Even the finest sword plunged into salt water will eventually rust.

Know yourself and you will win all battles.

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.

Either war is obsolete, or men are.

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

No one can guarantee success in war, but only deserve it.
