All my life, ... I have been preoccupied with the great tragedy of losing family in wars. The pain of losing a parent or a child in (an act of) violence that is purposefully and directly generated by political forces is in a certain way harder to bear than if someone dies in, say, an accident. The death feels more preventable.
Roger Waters
Since 1978, for almost three decades, China has been growing at over nine percent a year. Yet since 1979 East Asia has been more stable and more peaceful than any other time since the opium wars of 1859.
David Kang
People want to be entertained again. Our music is like 'Star Wars' for the ears. The production, the music -- it's all about entertainment.
Derrick Allen
While fourth-quarter results were disappointing, we're extremely excited about the upcoming film product, particularly 'Star Wars,'.
Peter Brown
If you look at the 'Harry Potter' merchandise sales, they tended to go down as each sequel was released, ... Hasbro was somewhat non-committal when we asked them what they expected the trends this year to be with the Star Wars-related products.
Timothy Conder
Proof will include truth, but it will not present the full picture. We have a limitless field of evidence from the wars, but we are not inquiring like scientists; we are asked to extract from it.
Geoffrey Nice
I graduated in June 1943, and July 1, 1943, I was sent to the Pacific. I was 17. I was just a kid. Wars are not fought by old men, they're fought by kids.
Robert Rock
I want to be the first to bless you on what God has blessed you with - fighting in the heart of the Muslim world that was a battleground for large historic Islamic wars and what is now the place of Islam's greatest war in the present era.
Ayman Zawahiri
No doubt 'Star Wars' is an important property for Hasbro but the history of that license hasn't been overall profitable for them.
Timothy Conder
The 'Star Wars' series is a fairytale told in space.
Jeremy Bulloch
There have been some wars that been necessary in some ways. I think WWII was an important war. If the situation right now was like WWII, I'm sure you would be all for it. I believe in war but I'm not clear with what's going on now.
Benicio Del Toro
For when established identities become outworn or unfinished ones threaten to remain incomplete, special crises compel men to wage holy wars, by the cruelest means, against those who seem to question or threaten their unsafe ideological bases.
Erik Erikson, Dr.
No one has shown any connection whatsoever between these games and tragic incidents such as Littleton, or to youth violence in general, ... But countless studies have shown a linkage of youth violence to factors such as poverty, lack of parental involvement, family violence, untreated mental illness, the proliferation of guns, substance abuse and illegal drug wars.
Don Tapscott
But once we lost, we had to focus on the states. We had one last shot. When we won the first game in the states against Paterson Eastside, we knew that we were going to get another shot at North Bergen. You don't get another shot often in life. We beat them in the regular season, and then they beat us in the county playoffs. All three games were wars, decided by a total of eight points.
Carlos Cueto
I just came out and from the opening drum roll, the 20th Century Fox theme, they knew exactly where this was going. People were probably very, very surprised about how much they remembered of Star Wars.
Charles Ross
People aren't anxious to see a repeat of the 'Unix wars' of a few years ago.
Bruce Lowry
This system of chain wars can end only in two ways: either it will result in horrible physical destructions and concomitant revolutionary changes of social order beyond reasonable guesses; or, with the natural change of generations, it will lead to the abandoning of Gnostic dreaming before the worst has happened.
Eric Voegelin
History is littered with wars which everybody knew would never happen.
John Enoch Powell
Have all they need to fight and win this nation's wars.
Ellen Krenke
We have never seen so many female soldiers. They are mothers. Some of them are single mothers ? great numbers of them. And we are sending them to fight our wars in a way that is unprecedented, not just in American history, but in history around the world.
Elaine Donnelly
How vivid is the suffering of the few when the people are few and how the suffering of nameless millions in two world wars is blurred over by numbers.
Edwin Way Teale
We are really the arms suppliers to a significant series of wars going on.
Edgar Bronfman
I am sure that if the mothers of various nations could meet, there would be no more wars.
