War means fighting, and fighting means killing.

War is a contagion.

It is my contention that most people are not mugged every day, that most people in this world do not encounter violence every day. I think we prepare people for violence, and I think just as importantly we prepare people for the definition of being gentle.

Unless a nation's life faces peril, war is murder.

War is the slaughter of human beings, temporarily regarded as enemies, on as large a scale as possible.

If you use weapons of war to bring about peace, you're going to have more war and destruction.

War makes thieves and peace hangs them.

Combat is a piece of war. But war is a totalizing, uncivilized experience.

Peace does not mean just to stop wars, but also to stop oppression and injustice.
