You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake.
From Jeannette Rankin
If I had my life to live over, I would do it all again, but this time I would be nastier.
Men and women are like right and left hands; it doesn't make sense not to use both.
I have nothing left but my integrity.
As a woman I can't go to war, and I refuse to send anyone else.
It is unconscionable that 10,000 boys have died in Vietnam. If 10,000 American women had mind enough they could end the war, if they were committed to the task, even if it meant going to jail.
War is the slaughter of human beings, temporarily regarded as enemies, on as large a scale as possible.
What one decides to do in crisis depends on one's philosophy of life, and that philosophy cannot be changed by an incident. If one hasn't any philosophy in crises, others make the decision.
It is important for people to be able to read all sides of every question; for a feeling of national unity does not come from one-sided or inadequate information, but from a sense of freedom impartially secured and of opportunity equalized by a just government.
I want to stand by my country, but I cannot vote for war.
