It is a grave matter to enter a war, without adequate military preparation; it may prove fatal to come into peace, without moral and religious preparation.

Wisdom begins with sacrifice of immediate pleasures for long-range purposes.

Louis Finkelstein

We realize that Judaism as a faith can survive only in an atmosphere of general faith.

Louis Finkelstein

A rabbi should not despair if people do not do as much as they should. Every parent has that with children. God is merciful.

Louis Finkelstein

The road to success, and by that I mean... the possibility of giving the best one has to the cause that one loves most, is not easy.

Louis Finkelstein

A professional man of letters, especially if he is much at war with unscrupulous enemies, is naturally jealous of his privacy; he will be silent on his more personal interests, or, if he must speak, will veil them under conventional forms.

Walter Raleigh Writer

Life didn’t go how I had planned, but I couldn’t have planned a better life. Somewhere in between the beginning and eternity, I fought the war that we all must fight–the journey that in taking, forces us to come face to face with our own realities.

Laura Miller

It is so inspiring to see a new group coming together not to focus on a particular war or weapons system, but on all war-everywhere. And it's great to have such beautifully crafted arguments about why war is not inevitable and how war contributes to so many other global ills. This coalition is worthy of Martin Luther King's call to end violence and instead put our energies and resources into 'life-affirming activities.' Bravo!

Medea Benjamin Activist

These stupid peasants, who, throughout the world, hold potentates on their thrones, make statesmen illustrious, provide generals with lasting victories, all with ignorance, indifference, or half-witted hatred, moving the world with the strength of their arms, and getting their heads knocked together in the name of God, the king, or the stock exchange-immortal, dreaming, hopeless asses, who surrender their reason to the care of a shining puppet, and persuade some toy to carry their lives in his purse.

Stephen Crane Author

To sing of Wars, of Captains, and of Kings/Of Cities founded, Common-wealths begun/For my mean Pen are too superior things.

Anne Bradstreet Poet

You don't write about the horrors of war. No. You write about a kid's burnt socks lying in the road.

Richard Price Novelist
