Ending Except Good Nothing War

Abraham Lincoln
American - President
February 12, 1809 - April 15, 1865

There's no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy. There is nothing good in war. Except its ending.

Abraham Lincoln

War is worthless except for ending slavery, Nazism, fascism, and communism. Other than that, war is pointless.

Rush Limbaugh

War was the ultimate chaos, a pounding, soul-destroying snarl, ending in blown-apart men lying unburied on the cold earth. There was nothing more cosmically chaotic than war.

Paullina Simons

Study nothing except in the knowledge that you already knew it. Worship nothing except in adoration of your true self. And fear nothing except in the certainty that you are your enemy's begetter and its only hope of healing.

Clive Barker

No war can end war except a total war which leaves no human creature on earth. Each war creates the causes of war: hate, desire for revenge and have-nots, desperate with need.

Zelda Popkin

Nothing can hurt you except sin; nothing can grieve me except sin; nothing can defeat you except sin. Therefore, be on your guard, my Mansoul.

John Bunyan

...nothing ever happens quickly (except when it does). Nothing is ever, ever easy (except when it is). And, most of all, nothing ever goes perfectly according to plan (except in the movies).

Ally Carter

Desire nothing except desirelessness. Hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes. Want nothing and you will have everything.

Meher Baba

?"Nothing binds you except your thoughts; nothing limits you except your fear; and nothing controls you except your beliefs.

Marianne Williamson

War does not answer war, war does not finish war. The only ending is peace.

Philippa Gregory

People say the war in Iraq is a bad war, and the war in Afghanistan is a good war, but what's the difference between them? Democratic people around the world cannot accept that this is a good war. This is just endless war.

Malalai Joya

It wasn't so easy though, ending the war. A war is a huge fire; the ashes from it drift far, and settle slowly.

Margaret Atwood

It's always easiest for me as a writer if I know I have a great ending. It can make everything else work. If you don't have a good ending, it's the hardest things in the world to come up with one. I always loved the ending of 'The Kite Runner,' and the scenes that are most faithful to the book are the last few scenes.

David Benioff

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice - is often the means of their regeneration.

John Stuart Mill

There is nothing wrong with good accounting, except that it does not necessarily lead to good science.

Gerhard Herzberg

I return with feelings of misgiving from my third war-I was the first American commander to put his signature to a paper ending a war when we did not win it.

Bill Vaughan
