War is Stupid
"The past is prophetic in that it asserts loudly that wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
"What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy?" - Mohandas Gandhi
"When the rich wage war it's the poor who die." - Jean-Paul Sartre
"Never has there been a good war or a bad peace" - Benjamin Franklin
"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets." - Voltaire
"We're not made by God to mass kill one another ... and that's backed up by the Gospel. Lying and war are always associated. Listen closely when you hear a war-maker try to defend his current war: If he moves his lips he's lying." - Father Philip Berrigan
