It's hard to deny that an alarming number of those who stood for peace, not war, were either killed by deranged lone gunmen or else died in suspicious circumstances. We refer of course to the likes of JFK, Martin Luther King, Benazir Bhutto, Bobby Kennedy and John Lennon, to name but a few. ~ James Morcan
Peace Not War quotes by James Morcan
Preventive war was an invention of Hitler. I would not even listen to anyone seriously that came and talked about such a thing. ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower
Peace Not War quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
Every citizen must be actively aware of, participating in, and overseeing research, and that research should be focused on creating prosperity and peace, not war and poverty or suicidal needs.

I speak of peace, therefore, as the necessary rational end of rational men. I realize the pursuit of peace is not as dramatic as the pursuit of war ... But we have no more urgent task. ~ John F. Kennedy
Peace Not War quotes by John F. Kennedy

Peace Not War quotes by Robert Fulghum
My argument is that War makes rattling good history; but Peace is poor reading. ~ Thomas Hardy
Peace Not War quotes by Thomas Hardy
The belief that we some day shall be able to prevent war is, to me, one with the belief in the possibility of making humanity really human. ~ Ellen Key

Youth is the first victim of war; the first fruit of peace.It takes 20 years or more of peace to make a man; it takes only 20 seconds of war to destroy him. ~ Baudouin Of Belgium
Peace Not War quotes by Baudouin Of Belgium
God wants to bring joy not pain, peace not war, healing not suffering. Therefore, instead of declaring anything and everything to be the will of God, we must be willing to ask ourselves where in the midst of our pains and sufferings we can discern the loving presence of God. ~ Henri J.M. Nouwen
Peace Not War quotes by Henri J.M. Nouwen
To plunder, to slaughter, to steal, these things they misname empire; and where they make a wilderness, they call it peace. ~ Tacitus

We live to be happy, not sad... ~ Manos Abou Chabke
Peace Not War quotes by Manos Abou Chabke
The first casualty when war comes is truth. ~ Hiram Johnson
Peace Not War quotes by Hiram Johnson
[T]he essence of so-called war prosperity: it enriches some by what it takes from others. It is not rising wealth but a shifting of wealth and income. ~ Ludwig Von Mises
Peace Not War quotes by Ludwig Von Mises
What the world needs now is peace not war
Is the darkness of hatred and violence...
ever worth dying for?

A Good Leader Is For The People,Not For Himself.
A Good Leader Does Not Watch His People Suffer. ~ Godfrey Orateng
Peace Not War quotes by Godfrey Orateng
We cannot have peace if we are only concerned with peace. War is not an accident. It is the logical outcome of a certain way of life. If we want to attack war, we have to attack that way of life. ~ A.J. Muste
Peace Not War quotes by A.J. Muste
Exchange love for hate ... Thereby, making the present comfortable and the future promising. ~ Maya Angelou
Peace Not War quotes by Maya Angelou

Peace Not War quotes by Benjamin Franklin
The time not to become a father is eighteen years before a war. ~ E.B. White
Peace Not War quotes by E.B. White
Wars are not acts of God. They are caused by man, by man-made institutions, by the way in which man has organized his society. What man has made, man can change. ~ Frederick M. Vinson
Peace Not War quotes by Frederick M. Vinson
Nothing lasted forever. Not peace. Not war. Nothing. ~ James S.A. Corey
Peace Not War quotes by James S.A. Corey
Usually, terrible things that are done with the excuse that progress requires them are not really progress at all, but just terrible things. ~ Russell Baker
Peace Not War quotes by Russell Baker
No weapon has ever settled a moral problem. It can impose a solution but it cannot guarantee it to be a just one. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Peace Not War quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
What these followers do not realize is that the Islamic faith is mostly a peaceful religion. The violent tactics spread by Islamic radicals is a common misconception of the religion that has made it hard for most Islamic cultures around the world to continue peacefully. The misinformed assume that all Muslims, followers of Islam, are dangerous threats. Yet the truth is that the words of Islamic faith are about peace, not war. ~ Jordan Keller
Peace Not War quotes by Jordan Keller
An army of principles can penetrate where an army of soldiers cannot. ~ Thomas Paine
Peace Not War quotes by Thomas Paine
Is it not a strange blindness on our part to teach publicly the techniques of warfare and to reward with medals those who prove to be the most adroit killers? ~ Marquis De Sade
Peace Not War quotes by Marquis De Sade
Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Peace Not War quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
They were saying "Make peace, not war," and so, the Commander of the Ohio State National Guard testified in the course of the Kent State trials, he threw a rock at them. ~ Renata Adler
Peace Not War quotes by Renata Adler
My opposition to war is not based upon pacifist or non-resistant principles. It may be that the present state of civilization is such that certain international questions cannot be discussed; it may be that they have to be fought out. But the fighting never settles the question. It only gets the participants around to a frame of mind where they will agree to discuss what they were fighting about. ~ Henry Ford
Peace Not War quotes by Henry Ford
Gandhi once said be the change you want to see in the world. Truth is ... we must rise above our problems in our lives to contribute positive energy to humanity to do so. When we overcome painful situations and give back to help others ... we not only help ourselves but help better humanity in the process. ~ Timothy Pina
Peace Not War quotes by Timothy Pina
A bare two years after Vasco da Gama's voyage a Portuguese fleet led by Pedro Alvarez Cabral arrived on the Malabar coast. Cabral delivered a letter from the king of Portugal to the Samudri (Samudra-raja or Sea-king), the Hindu ruler of the city-state of Calicut, demanding that he expel all Muslims from his kingdom as they were enemies of the 'Holy Faith'. He met with a blank refusal; then afterwards the Samudra steadfastly maintained that Calicut had always been open to everyone who wished to trade there…

During those early years the people who had traditionally participated in the Indian Ocean trade were taken completely by surprise. In all the centuries in which it had flourished and grown, no state or kings or ruling power had ever before tried to gain control of the Indian Ocean trade by force of arms. The territorial and dynastic ambitions that were pursued with such determination on land were generally not allowed to spill over into the sea.

Within the Western historiographical record the unarmed character of the Indian Ocean trade is often represented as a lack, or failure, one that invited the intervention of Europe, with its increasing proficiency in war. When a defeat is as complete as was that of the trading cultures of the Indian Ocean, it is hard to allow the vanquished the dignity of nuances of choice and preference. Yet it is worth allowing for the possibility that the peaceful traditions of the oceanic trade may have been, in a quiet and ~ Amitav Ghosh
Peace Not War quotes by Amitav Ghosh
Homo sapiens! The name itself was an irony. They had not been wise at all, but incredibly stupid. Lords of the Earth with their great gray brains, their thinking minds had placed them above all other forms of life. Yet it had not been thought that compelled them to act, but emotion. From the dawn of their evolution they had killed, and conquered, and subdued. They had committed atrocities on others of their kind, ravaged the land, polluted and destroyed, left millions to starve in Third World countries, and finished it all with a nuclear holocaust. The mutants were right. Intelligent creatures did not commit genocide, or murder the environment on which they were dependent. ~ Louise Lawrence
Peace Not War quotes by Louise Lawrence
I have spent weeks in the desert, forgetting to look at the moon, he says, as a married man may spend days never looking into the face of his wife. These are not sins of omission but signs of pre-occuopation. ~ Michael Ondaatje
Peace Not War quotes by Michael Ondaatje
Despite recent German setbacks on the battlefield, the Wolf still has hope that his plans for global domination will yet be realized. His greatest goal is the eradication of the Jewish people, with whom he is obsessed, despite not having had any intentional contact with a Jew in twenty years. "This war can end two ways," he said in a January 30, 1942, address to the German parliament. "Either the extermination of the Aryan peoples or the disappearance of Jewry from Europe." Prior ~ Bill O'Reilly
Peace Not War quotes by Bill O'Reilly
My generation has not seen one single day of peace, and my dream is for my children and the children of all Colombians to have the change to see it. I hope the guerrilla understands that the time has come to leave this 50-year confrontation behind; that the time has come to change from bullets to votes, from weapons to argumentations; that the time has come for them to continue their struggle, but within democracy. ~ Juan Manuel Santos
Peace Not War quotes by Juan Manuel Santos
Blood for honor. That was the price then, as it was the price now. It was always the price of honor. Always blood. Always pain. And as the queen was scourged, he wondered if such a thing as honor really existed at all. For what was honor if it could not strip the pride from a barbarian woman even as she was beaten before her people? What was honor if he could only defend his own by doing this to her? Honor, Decianus thought, was just an excuse for war and mayhem. An excuse for taking. Whether the taking of a woman or the taking of one tribe against another, one empire over another, one emperor over the world. An emperor like the one he served . . . If this was honor, he wanted no part in it. ~ Ruth Downie
Peace Not War quotes by Ruth Downie
If we had not driven them into hell, hell would have swallowed us. ~ Alexander Suvorov
Peace Not War quotes by Alexander Suvorov
In the Peace Corps, the volunteer must be a fully developed, mature person. He must not join to run abroad or escape problems. ~ Sargent Shriver
Peace Not War quotes by Sargent Shriver
When I was last in Paris I was dirt poor, hiding from the Vietnam War. One night, in an old church, I considered taking my life. I didn't know how to be so young and not belong anywhere, stuck among so many perplexing melodies. ~ Philip Schultz
Peace Not War quotes by Philip Schultz
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. ~ Margot Asquith
Peace Not War quotes by Margot Asquith
What is happening in politics today is a similar process to what happened in the medical world a few decades ago: realizing that there's more to healing than just addressing symptoms. Primary paradigm when it comes to dealing with political and social disease is allopathic: Pass a law, lock someone up, engage in warfare. And the state of the world today makes it clear that such allopathic measures have not exactly brought peace to all. ~ Marianne Williamson
Peace Not War quotes by Marianne Williamson
Until you will stop the bombing, gassing, imprisonment and torture of my people we will not stop this fight. We are at war, and I am a soldier and now you too will taste the reality of this situation. ~ Mohamed Khan
Peace Not War quotes by Mohamed Khan
I am not much given to profanity, but when I am sorely aggravated and vexed in spirit I declare to you that it comes as such a relief to me, such a solace to my troubled soul, and brings me such Heavenly peace to every now and then allow a word of phrase to escape my lips which can serve me no other earthly purpose, seemingly, other than to render emphatic my otherwise mildly expressed ideas. ~ Col. Robert G. Ingersoll
Peace Not War quotes by Col. Robert G. Ingersoll
Did you notice that trials do not test our character, they test our faith? Faith is fundamentally a relational term - it is not first a matter of what you believe, but of whom you trust. The battle for our trust is as old as Adam and Eve. In the midst of battle, it can seem so complex, but when the dust settles and the smoke clears, the real war is always over the same question - whom will we believe? Whom will we listen to, God or the devil? ~ Kris Vallotton
Peace Not War quotes by Kris Vallotton
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower
Peace Not War quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
A Yale professor of military history, Micheal Howard, writing in the New York Times )January 28, 1991) quoted the military strategist Clausewitz approvingly: "The fact that a bloody slaughter is a horrifying act must make us take war more seriously, but not provide an excuse for gradually blunting our swords in the name of humanity. ~ Howard Zinn
Peace Not War quotes by Howard Zinn
Terror is a tactic. We can not wage "war" against a tactic. ~ Ron Paul
Peace Not War quotes by Ron Paul
Christ never promises peace in the sense of no more struggle and suffering. Instead, he helps us to struggle and suffer as he did, in love, for one another. Christ does not give us security in the sense of something in this world, some cause, some principle, some value, which is forever. Instead, he tells us that there is nothing in this world that is forever, all flesh is grass. He does not promise us unlonely lives. His own life speaks loud of how, in a world where there is little love, love is always lonely. Instead of all these, the answer that he gives, I think, is himself. If we go to him for anything else, he may send us away empty or he may not. But if we go to him for himself, I believe that we go away always with this deepest of all our hungers filled. ~ Frederick Buechner
Peace Not War quotes by Frederick Buechner
And before he left, he said something she could never forget.

"You're like a park bench on an evening of sunset. People come, unload their worries, rest a while and may not even want to leave. But leave they must for the world outside awaits. And you must make peace with it. ~ Nitya Prakash
Peace Not War quotes by Nitya Prakash
If you are not radiant with joy and friendliness, if you are not filled to overflowing with love and goodwill for all beings and all creatures and all creation, one thing is certain: you do not know God! ~ Peace Pilgrim
Peace Not War quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Yes, what has happened is we have moved from responding to these terrorist attacks as acts of civil disobedience to getting to the point after September 11 that we said, no, this is not just civil disobedience, this is an act of war. ~ Marsha Blackburn
Peace Not War quotes by Marsha Blackburn
Despite the prominence that "magic bullets" and "wonder drugs" hold in the layman's mind, most of the really decisive battles in the war against infectious disease consisted of measures to eliminate disease organisms from the environment. An example from history concerns the great outbreak of cholera in London more than one hundred years ago. A London physician, John Snow, mapped occurrence of cases and found they originated in one area, all of whose inhabitants drew their water from one pump located on Broad Street. In a swift and decisive practice of preventative medicine, Dr. Snow removed the handle from the pump. The epidemic was thereby brought under control - not by a magic pill that killed the (then unknown) organism of cholera, but by eliminating the organism from the environment. ~ Rachel Carson
Peace Not War quotes by Rachel Carson
God, there must be a meaning. Fiercely he was certain that there must be a meaning.
Surely, while we live we are not lost.
Oh Janos, Janos my brother!
Surely we are not lost
while we live. ~ John Hepworth
Peace Not War quotes by John Hepworth
Sometimes things don't go, after all,
from bad to worse. Some years, muscadel
faces down frost; green thrives; the crops don't fail,
sometimes a man aims high, and all goes well.

A people sometimes will step back from war;
elect an honest man, decide they care
enough, that they can't leave some stranger poor.
Some men become what they were born for.

Sometimes our best efforts do not go
amiss, sometimes we do as we meant to.
The sun will sometimes melt a field of sorrow
that seemed hard frozen ... may it happen for you ... x x x ~ Sometimes By Sheenagh Pugh
Peace Not War quotes by Sometimes By Sheenagh Pugh
Who will protect your rights better? A king, president or you? Who will protect the truth? A reporter, a labor union or you? Who will protect and teach your children to seek truth? A textbook committee, an education bureaucrat, or you? Did a commission of wise men stop the Holocaust? Did a committee of Congress end Jim Crow? No. In each case, the work was done by individuals who would not abide convenient lies. They saw injustice and they called it out. They saw their nation wage war against a single group and they said "not in my name." They didn't wait for the conventions of society to catch up to God's laws. They pushed. They pressed. And they were victorious. ~ Glenn Beck
Peace Not War quotes by Glenn Beck
The purpose of education is to make the choices clear to people, not to make the choices for people. ~ Peter McWilliams
Peace Not War quotes by Peter McWilliams
No one else could carry close to forty-five thousand people in such a short amount of time. Not in a million human years. ~ Markus Zusak
Peace Not War quotes by Markus Zusak
We are not intimidated by the size of the armies, or the type of hardware the US has brought. ~ Saddam Hussein
Peace Not War quotes by Saddam Hussein
Some conservatives are surprised to find people on the Left supporting the war in Afghanistan. It's not surprising at all ... It is hard for the government to prosecute a war and not expand ... Conservatives may think they can support war and oppose the expansion of the state, but that is like trying to square the circle. What makes them think they can contain the expansion? ~ Sheldon Richman
Peace Not War quotes by Sheldon Richman
[we are] going to continue to fight communism. Now I am going to tell you how we are not going to fight communism. We are not going to transform our fine FBI into a Gestapo secret police. That is what some people would like to do. We are not going to try to control what our people read and say and think. We are not going to turn the United States into a right-wing totalitarian country in order to deal with a left-wing totalitarian threat. ~ Harry Truman
Peace Not War quotes by Harry Truman
War is not the best way of settling differences; it is the only way of preventing their being settled for you. ~ Gilbert K. Chesterton
