- Fred Menger
It is reasonable that every one who asks justice should do justice.
- Thomas Jefferson
Legitimacy is like the air we breathe; we only notice it when it is not there.
- Kenneth Boulding
The means by which we live have outdistanced the ends for which we live. Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power. We have guided missiles and misguided men.
- Steven King
If civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships - the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace.
- Franklin D. Roosevelt
The pioneers of a warless world are the young men (and women) who refuse military service.
- Albert Einstein
The love of one's country is a splendid thing. But why should love stop at the border?
- Pablo Casals
Peace demands the most heroic labor and the most difficult sacrifice. It demands greater heroism than war. It demands greater fidelity to the truth and a much more perfect purity of conscience.
- Thomas Merton
Mankind will never win lasting peace so long as men use their full resources only in tasks of war. While we are yet at peace, let us mobilize...the moral and spiritual potentialities...which we usually reserve for war.
- John Foster Dulles
Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.
- George Orwell

- Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
Nationalism is an infantile sickness. It is the measles of the human race.
- Albert Einstein
Non-violence is not inaction. It is not discussion. It is not for the timid or weak...Non-violence is hard work. It is the willingness to sacrifice. It is the patience to win.
- Cesar Chavez
I refuse to accept the cynical notion that nation after nation must spiral down a militaristic stairway into the hell of nuclear destruction. I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
When men talk about defense, they always claim to be protecting women and children, but they never ask the women and children what they think.
