Conflict cannot survive without your participation.

What will follow will not be a repeat of any other conflict. It will be of a force and scope and scale that has been beyond what has been seen before.

It’s alarming that military intervention in internal conflicts in foreign countries has become commonplace for the United States.

Your trials, crosses, and conflicts are all temporary.

Conversion is not putting a man in an armchair and taking him easily to heaven. It is the beginning of a mighty conflict, in which it costs much to win the victory.

Necessity is laid upon us. We must fight. There are no promises in the Lord Jesus Christ’s epistles to the seven churches, except to those who ‘overcome.’ Where there is grace, there will be conflict. The believer is a soldier. There is no holiness without a warfare. Saved souls will always be found to have fought a fight.

A holy violence, a conflict, a warfare, a fight, a soldier’s life, a wrestling, are spoken of as characteristic of the true Christian.

The cause of sin is never so much helped as when Christians waste their strength in quarreling with one another, and spend their time in petty squabbles.

Where there is grace there will be conflict. The believer is a soldier. There is no holiness without a warfare. Saved souls will always be found to have fought a fight.

But the point is, now, at this moment, or any moment, we’re only cross-sections of our real selves. What we really are is the whole stretch of ourselves, all our time, and when we come to the end of this life, all those selves, all our time, will be us – the real you, the real me. And then perhaps we’ll find ourselves in another time, which is only another kind of dream.

After all the human noise and conflicts have stopped, the absent person has more room in your heart to spread out and be herself. My mother’s been gone ten years and I know her much better now than when we saw each other every day.

No confict is so severe as his who labors to subdue himself

I’m interested in conflict and confrontation

Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph

In the duel of sex, woman fights from a dreadnought and man from an open raft.

Endless conflicts. Endless misunderstanding. All life is that. Great and little cannot understand one another.

In a world of noise, confusion and conflict it is necessary that there be places of silence, inner discipline and peace. In such places love can blossom.

If men are naturally in a state of war, why do they always carry arms and why do they have keys to lock their doors?

When all the world is overcharged with inhabitants, then the last remedy of all is war, which provideth for every man, by victory or death.

For it can never be that war shall preserve life, and peace destroy it

Force and fraud are in war the two cardinal virtues

The condition of man . . . is a condition of war of everyone against everyone

The fact is that when you make the other suffer, he will try to find relief by making you suffer more. The result is an escalation of suffering on both sides

In these days of conflict between ancient and modern studies, there must surely be something to be said for a study which did not begin with Pythagoras, and will not end with Einstein, but is the oldest and the youngest of all.

There is no time in American history in which there was more economic conflict between segments of the population than there was prior to the Civil War.

Between the Mediterranean and the borders of Iraq, in what was once Palestine, there are now two countries, one Jewish and one Arab, and there is no room for a third. The Palestinians must find the solution to their problem together with that Arab country, Jordan, because a ‘Palestinian state’ between us and Jordan can only become a base from which it will be more convenient to attack and destroy Israel.

It has never ceased to astonish me that the Arab states have been so eager to go to war against us. Almost from the very beginning of Zionist settlement until today, they have been consumed by hatred for us.

I’m sure that someday children in schools will study the history of the men who made war as you study an absurdity. They’ll be shocked, just as today we’re shocked with cannibalism.

I’m pretty confident and, at the same time, I’m pretty insecure. I’m like a walking conflict.

We are always at our best when compassion enables us to recognize the unique pressures and singular stories of the people on the other side of our conflicts.

Peace does not mean an absence of conflicts; differences will always be there. Peace means solving these differences through peaceful means; through dialogue, education, knowledge; and through humane ways.

Genuine tragedies in the world are not conflicts between right and wrong. They are conflicts between two rights.

I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.

The harder the conflict, the greater the triumph.

Our first and most pressing problem is how to do away with warfare as a method of solving conflicts between national groups within a society who have different views about how the society is to run.

Gog and Magog are at work in the Middle East… The biblical prophecies are being fulfilled… This confrontation is willed by God, who wants to use this conflict to erase his people’s enemies before a New Age begins.

How is it possible to have a civil war?

This world is full of conflicts and full of things that cannot be reconciled. But there are moments when we can… reconcile and embrace the whole mess, and that’s what I mean by ‘Hallelujah.
