Although a soldier by profession, I have never felt any sort of fondness for war, and I have never advocated it, except as a means of peace.

How do I feel about war? Well anybody I guess, I hope, I don't like it.

I know war as few other men now living know it, and nothing to me is more revolting. I have long advocated its complete abolition, as its very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a method of settling international disputes.

I hate war for its consequences, for the lies it lives on and propagates, for the undying hatreds it arouses.

I have known war as few men now living know it. It's very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a means of settling international disputes.

I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.

As long as war is regarded as wicked, it will always have its fascination. When it is looked upon as vulgar, it will cease to be popular.

When people speak to you about a preventive war, you tell them to go and fight it. After my experience, I have come to hate war.
