About this user

"In all wars the object is to protect or to seize money, property and power, and there will always be wars so long as Capital rules and oppresses people."
—Ernst Friedrich, War Against War (1924)

"Why of course the people don't want war. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
—Hermann Goering (attributed)

"They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason."
—Ernest Hemingway (attributed)

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in a final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed—those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending its money alone—it is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children."
—Dwight Eisenhower, Speech (1953)

"After a war, a hero is just a man with one leg."
—Anonymous

"REGRETTABLE NECESSITY, n. An avoidable atrocity. The term is often employed by presidents and prime ministers when announcing bombings of civilian targets and invasions of small countries."
—Chaz Bufe, The Devil's Dictionaries ("American Heretic's Dictionary" section)

"I believe in compulsory cannibalism. If people were forced to eat what they killed there would be no more war."
—Abbie Hoffman
