Wars, Battle Tactics, Considerations ... "War is too serious a matter to entrust to military men." - Georges Clemenceau "We do not want wars even when we win. We do not rejoice in victories. We rejoice when a new kind of cotton is grown and when strawberries bloom in Israel." - Golda Meir, Prime minister of Israel in 1969 "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron." - Dwight David Eisenhower (1890 - 1969), 1953 "If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done." - Peter Ustinov "Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duty and so brace ourselves that if the British Commonwealth and Empire lasts for 1,000 years, men will say, ‘This was their finest hour'" ...

Winston Churchill, English prime minister, noble prize for literature, 1953 "If we have a slim chance of survival, it lies in the possibility to get rid of wars." - Edward Teller, co-developed the atomic and the hydrogen bombs "Never attack where the enemy expects you to come." - George S. Patton, U.S. Army general "The commander must decide how he will fight the battle before it begins .... He must make the enemy dance to his tune from the beginning and not vice versa." - Bernard Laws Montgomery, Monty, Britain's top commander in WW2 "When it came to war, the only thing certain was uncertainty." - Karl von Clausewitz, Prussian general, "On War" thought to be the most important and influential work on war written War, making decisions "War is like other arts: helpful when used well and pernicious when abused; the prince who goes to war because he is worried, frivolous, disorganized or ambitious is as damnable as a judge who uses the sword of justice to stab an innocent." - Frederick the Great, Prussian King War strategies "If I thought my coat knew my plans, I would take it off and burn it." - Frederick the Great Warriors code War Politics "Martyrdom... is the only way in which a man can become famous without ability." - George Bernard Shaw "People do not lack strength; they lack will." - Victor Hugo, novelist
