“This is what war does. Right here, in my hands. This is war.”
“War does not answer war, war does not finish war. The only ending is peace.”
“I won't let you spoil my war for me. Destroys the weak, does it? Well, what does peace do for'em, huh? War feeds its people better.”
“War does not determine who is right — only who is left.”
“Here's my strategy on the Cold War: we win, they lose.”
“It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge. War endures. As well ask men what they think of stone. War was always here. Before man was, war waited for him. The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner. That is the way it was and will be. That way and not some other way.”
