Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind

Men are at war with each other because each man is at war with himself

This administration misled a nation into war by cherry-picking intelligence and stretching the truth beyond recognition

Many intelligence reports in war are contradictory even more are false, and most are uncertain

Let us ever remember that our interest is in concord, not in conflict and that our real eminence rests in the victories of peace, not those of war

I made the case to Gen. Franks and Secretary Rumsfeld before the president that I was not sure we had enough troops. The case was made, it was listened to, it was considered. … A judgment was made by those responsible that the troop strength was adequate

When I first started here, I was sitting in the ditch thinking, 'What the heck did I do? Texas in August, the chiggers, fire ants, rattlesnakes, uncomfortable accommodations' _ but I'm going to be sad leaving here, ... I hope people will say that the Camp Casey movement sparked a peace movement that ended the war in Iraq

Well, you know, when I talked about the $87 billion, I made a mistake in how I talk about the war. But the president made a mistake in invading Iraq. Which is worse

Nations have recently been led to borrow billions for war; no nation has ever borrowed largely for education... no nation is rich enough to pay for both war and civilization. We must make our choice; we cannot have both.

When lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentler gamester is the soonest winner.
