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

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.

From the happy expression on their faces you might have supposed that they welcomed the war. I have met with men who loved stamps, and stones, and snakes, but I could not imagine any man loving war.

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.

Never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal.

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

You can not lead a battle if you think you look silly on a horse.

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

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.

You don't reason with intellectuals. You shoot them.

To fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.

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

It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.

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

Evil has no capital of its own. It is a parasite on goodness.

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

We are no longer going to ask for the land, but we are going to take it without negotiating.

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

Either war is obsolete, or men are.

War is mainly a catalogue of blunders.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
