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

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

All warfare is based on deception.

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

Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

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

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

It is very queer that the unhappiness of the world is so often brought on by small men.

A conqueror is always a lover of peace.

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

Everything in war is very simple. But the simplest thing is difficult.

I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent

There is no instance of a nation benefiting from prolonged warfare

As soon as men decide that all means are permitted to fight an evil, then their good becomes indistinguishable from the evil that they set out to destroy.

Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.

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

Any alliance whose purpose is not the intention to wage war is senseless and useless.

Wars come and go, but my soldiers stay eternal

Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

Civil war? What does that mean? Is there any foreign war? Isn't every war fought between men, between brothers?

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