“ I want to stand by my country, but I cannot vote for war ”
The greatest threat to peace is the barrage of rightist propaganda portraying war as decent, honorable, and patriotic.
~ Jeannette Rankin
We'd be the safest country in the world if the world knew we didn't have a gun. Men are not killed because they get mad at each other. They're killed because one has a gun.
You can no more win a war than you can win an earthquake.
The most important accomplishment, I believe, was my voting against the First World War.
