Text Quotes
The two world wars boosted American power and devastated potential rivals to an extent that could not have lasted more than a few decades  (Wars Quotes) The movie I’ve seen the most times, boy, that’s a tough one.

Wars and armies and nuclear weapons are essentially heterosexual hobbies  (Wars Quotes) Mubarak came to power as a hero who fought bravely in Egypt’s wars and headed the nation’s air force  (Wars Quotes) Winning wars, after all, is the ultimate test not of the quality of single men but of their capacity to work together and accept common sacrifices  (Wars Quotes) The history of humanity is not the history of its wars, but the history of its households  (Wars Quotes) Propriety and single interest divides the people of a land and the whole world into parties and is the cause of all wars and bloodshed and contention everywhere  (Wars Quotes) If one of your best friends is making a Star Wars movie, you’re not gonna not abuse that privilege. I defy anybody to say otherwise!  (Wars Quotes) The people [in the USA] are not very well informed. They certainly don`t know history. They certainly are not interested in foreign affairs very much, unless it comes right to their doorstep. They all learn history through wars. They learn geography through wars  (Wars Quotes) Star Wars is mythology. Its like Greek mythology or Shakespeare. Its the story of good versus evil over a very long span of time. The storytelling is universal and timeless  (Wars Quotes) I tried to go to Kosovo to establish a statue to commemorate those who died during the wars, and to discuss moving on, so we could move into a new era. But I was banned from there  (Wars Quotes) The American army between world wars after World War I had virtually disintegrated. It was a very small force, given largely to practicing cavalry charges on western outposts  (Wars Quotes) My most memorable science fiction experience was Star Wars and seeing R2D2 and C3PO. I fell in love with those robots  (Wars Quotes) If you delve into and a part of the political wars, the - as I would call it, the arguing ad infinitum. It never ends, and very few people I’ve noticed ever change their mind  (Wars Quotes) ... so far from entrenching human conduct within the gentle barriers of peace and love, religion has ever been, and now is, the deepest source of contentions, wars, persecutions for conscience sake, angry words, angry feelings, backbitings, slanders, suspicions, false judgments, evil interpretations, unwise, unjust, injurious, inconsistent actions  (Wars Quotes) Luxury, or a refinement on the pleasures and conveniences of life, had long been supposed the source of every corruption in government, and the immediate cause of faction, sedition, civil wars, and the total loss of liberty. It was, therefore, universally regarded as a vice, and was an object of declamation to all satyrists, and severe moralists  (Wars Quotes) It’s not greed and ambition that makes wars--it’s goodness. Wars are always fought for the best of reasons, for liberation or manifest destiny, always against tyranny and always in the best interests of humanity. So far this war, we’ve managed to butcher some 10,000,000 people in the interest of humanity. The next war, it seems we’ll have to destroy all of man in order to preserve his damn dignity  (Wars Quotes) Development is a fundamental part of our national security. It is extreme poverty- the realities of access to water and food- which create the long-term drivers of our insecurity. Most wars are fought over scarce resources and that is going to accelerate in the future  (Wars Quotes) I read Zuleika Dobson with pleasure. It represents the Oxford that the two World Wars have destroyed with a charm that is not likely to be reproduced anywhere in the world for the next thousand years  (Wars Quotes) Well, it has done terrifying things. Religious ideas are inflammatory in a way that I find difficult to understand. There are very few wars over the theory of relativity. Very few heated arguments, for that matter. Whereas, in Northern Ireland, they are killing one another over religion  (Wars Quotes) The left, of course, will say Carson doesn’t believe in the Geneva Convention, Carson doesn’t believe in fighting stupid wars. And - and what we have to remember is we want to utilize the tremendous intellect that we have in the military to win wars  (Wars Quotes) All these wars are similar in the way ideology is being used. It’s the ideology of so-called humanitarian intervention. We don’t want to do this, but we’re doing this for the sake of the people who live there. This is, of course, a terrible sleight of hand because all sorts of people live there, and, by and large, they do it to help one faction and not the other  (Wars Quotes) Each year, every city in the world that can should have a multiday festival. More people meeting each other, digging new types of music, new foods, new ideas. You want to stop having so many wars? This could be a step in the right direction  (Wars Quotes) Market capitalism survived and prospered after the boom-bust industrial revolution of the 19th century, and the Great Depression and world wars of the 20th century. It will recover from the financial panic of 2008-09 and Obamanomics  (Wars Quotes) The religious wars showed that the Christian faith was no longer Europe’s unifying force. A new common ground was needed, and it was found in reason, which is something that is shared by all of mankind. This was one of the roots of the Enlightenment and its concept of universal human rights  (Wars Quotes) Wars always evolve over time, don’t they? Iraq/Afghanistan is different than Vietnam, and Vietnam was different than Korea, and Korea was different than World War One, and so on. Some things remain the same, of course - one side fighting another over ideology or a patch of ground - but there are some aspects of combat life which differ radically than their predecessors  (Wars Quotes) The homeless are still homeless and the poor are still poor but yet we still find billions and billions of dollars to fund senseless Wars and Space Programs. Sadly...such is the way of the Asinine politician!  (Wars Quotes)
