War Quotes

War is humanity’s darkest paradox — born from fear, pride, and the illusion of power. It reveals both the cruelty and the courage that lie within us.

Quotes about war remind us that victory often carries loss, and that peace is the only triumph worth seeking.

War destroys more than cities; it erodes compassion, dulls empathy, and leaves silence where laughter once was. Yet from its ashes rise stories of resilience, sacrifice, and the longing for reconciliation.

To remember war is not to glorify it, but to learn from it — to see that the price of hatred is always greater than its cause. In understanding its devastation, we honor the call to peace.
