Quote DB :: War & Peace Search in this category Sponsored Links Quote Author Rating Rate "If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest.

Patrick Henry "The only way to win World War III is to prevent it." Dwight Eisenhower "I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of their way and let them have it."

Dwight Eisenhower "True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice."

They must be urged to the slaughter by politicians who know how to alarm them." Henry Mencken "History teaches that wars begin when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap." Ronald Reagan "There are some who've forgotten why we have a military. It's not to promote war; it's to be prepared for peace."
