"Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought! Strike against manufacturing shrapnel and gas bombs and all other tools of murder! Strike against preparedness that means death and misery to millions of human beings! Be not dumb, obedient slaves in an army of destruction! Be heroes in an army of construction!" :

"If we let people see that kind of thing, there would never again be any war."

"The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own."

"No one has ever succeeded in keeping nations at war except by lies."

"The poor go to war, to fight and die for the delights, riches, and superfluities of others."

"The first casualty when war comes is truth."

"You can no more win a war that you can win an earthquake."

"There has never been a protracted war from which a country has benefited."
