"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 and democracy?" - Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi
"
A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and
promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much
surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that
those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own": H.G. Wells
"If
we work in marble, it will perish; if we work upon brass, time will
efface it; if we rear temples, they will crumble into dust; but if we
work upon immortal minds and instill into them just principles, we are
then engraving upon tablets which no time will efface, but will
brighten and brighten to all eternity": - Daniel Webster
