3 December 2020 Barbara Corcoran The most influential factor in selling a home is always price. Don’t build ‘wiggle room’ into the asking price. There’s a price war out there and you have to win it from the get-go.
3 December 2020 George Orwell There is hardly such a thing as a war in which it makes no difference who wins. Nearly always one side stands more of less for progress, the other side more or less for reaction.
3 December 2020 Douglas MacArthur In war, you win or lose, live or die – and the difference is just an eyelash.
3 December 2020 William Tecumseh Sherman I know I had no hand in making this war, and I know I will make more sacrifices today than any of you to secure peace.
3 December 2020 Adrienne Rich The mother’s battle for her child with sickness, with poverty, with war, with all the forces of exploitation and callousness that cheapen human life needs to become a common human battle, waged in love and in the passion for survival.
3 December 2020 Henry David Thoreau What is human warfare but just this an effort to make the laws of God and nature take sides with one party.
3 December 2020 Howard Dean Every day it becomes clearer that this was the wrong war at the wrong time.
3 December 2020 Dan Savage Really, when it comes to gay rights, there’s two wars going on. The first war is political. But the culture war is over.
3 December 2020 Franklin D. Roosevelt More than an end to war, we want an end to the beginning of all wars – yes, an end to this brutal, inhuman and thoroughly impractical method of settling the differences between governments.
3 December 2020 John W. Vessey, Jr. Our strategy is one of preventing war by making it self-evident to our enemies that they’re going to get their clocks cleaned if they start one.
3 December 2020 John F. Kennedy Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both.
3 December 2020 Mel Brooks I was a soldier in WWII. The last couple of months of the war I was actually in combat.
3 December 2020 Kevin Costner President Kennedy was willing to go to war. He was not a coward. The man had been in war and so had Ken O’Donnell. He was ready to protect this nation, but he was not ready for a military solution just because it was being rammed down his throat.
3 December 2020 William Tecumseh Sherman War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want.
3 December 2020 Imelda Marcos I beg Osama to stop warring. He is a Muslim, and Islam means peace. Nobody wins in a war… I wish I were tapped in the problem about Iraq. I knew Saddam enough that I could have talked him into surrendering. But it’s too late.

3 December 2020 Leon Trotsky There are no absolute rules of conduct, either in peace or war. Everything depends on circumstances.
3 December 2020 Harry Browne It is well known that in war, the first casualty is truth – that during any war truth is forsaken for propaganda.
3 December 2020 Jean-Paul Sartre Total war is no longer war waged by all members of one national community against all those of another. It is total… because it may well involve the whole world.
3 December 2020 James Lovelock This programme to stop nuclear by 2020 is just crazy. If there were a nuclear war, and humanity were wiped out, the Earth would breathe a sigh of relief.
