“A weapon is a tool," she repeated, a little breathlessly. "A tool for killing and destroying. And there will be times when, as an Envoy, you must kill and destroy. Then you will choose and equip yourself with the tools that you need. But remember the weakness of weapons. They are an extension--you are the killer and destroyer. You are whole, with or without them.”
Richard K. Morgan, Altered Carbon

“Adolf Hitler is probably the last of the great adventurer-conquerors in the tradition of Alexander, Caesar and Napoleon, and the Third Reich the last of the empires which set out on the path taken earlier by France, Rome and Macedonia.

William L. Shirer, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany

Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

Pushpa Rana
“It is not the dead rather the ones who lives through war have seen the dreadful end of the war, you might have been victorious, unwounded but deep within you, you carry the mark of the war, you carry the memories of war, the time you have spend with your comrades, the times when you had to dug in to foxholes to avoid shelling, the times when you hate to see your comrade down on the ground, feeling of despair, atrocities of the war, missing families, home. They live through hell and often the most wounded, they live with the guilt, despair, of being in the war, they may be happy but deep down they are a different person. Not everyone is a hero. You live with the moments, time when you were unsuccessful, when your actions would have helped your comrades, when your actions get your comrades killed, you live with regret, joyous in the victory can never help you forget the time you have spent. You are victorious for the people you have lost, the decisions you have made, the courage you have shown but being victorious in the war has a price to pay, irrevocable.

You can't take a memory back from a person, even if you lose your memory your imagination haunts you as deep down your sub conscious mind you know who you are, who you were. Close you eyes and you can very well see your past, you cant change your past, time you have spent, you live through all and hence you are a hero not for the glorious war for the times you have faced. Decoration with medals is not going to give your life back. the more you know, more experiences doesn't make it easy rather make its worse. Arms and ammunition kills you once and free you from the misery but the experiences of war kills you everyday, makes you cherish the times everyday through the life. You may forgot that you cant walk anymore, you may forget you cant use your right hand, you may forgot the scars on your face but you can never forgot war. Life without war is never easy and only the ones how survived through it can understand. Soldiers are taught to fight but the actual combat starts after war which you are not even trained for. You rely on your weapon, leaders, comrades, god, luck in the war but here you rely on your self to beat the horrors,they have seen hell, heaven, they have felt the mixed emotions of hope, despair, courage, victory, defeat, scared.”
Pushpa Rana, Just the Way I Feel

Richard K. Morgan
“It was the single forgiving phrase in the syntax of weaponry I had strapped about me. The rest were unequivocal sentences of death.”
Richard K. Morgan, Altered Carbon

“This Jesus of Nazereth without money and arms, conquered more millions than Alexander, Caeser, Muhammad and Napoleon; without science and learning, He shed more light on matters human and divine than all philosophers and scholars combined; without the eloquence of schools, He spoke such words of life as were never spoke before or since and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of orator poet; without writing a single line, He set more pens in motion and furnished themes for more sermons, orations, discussions, learned volumes, works of art and songs of praise than the whole army of great men of ancient and modern times.”
John Schaff

Robert Jackson Bennett
“Yet I now ask of you—are you marauders or are you servants? Do you give power to others, or do you hoard it? Do you fight not to have something, but rather fight so that others might one day have something? Is your blade a part of your soul, or is it a burden, a tool, to be used with care? Are you soldiers, my children, or are you savages?”
Robert Jackson Bennett, City of Blades

“The language of sword is less powerful than the language of word, but most of
the people understand the language of sword with greater power than the
language of word.”
Kedar Joshi

Edgar Rice Burroughs
“I am glad," he said, "that I do not dwell in your country among such savage peoples. Here, in Caspak, men fight with men when they meet - men of different races - but their weapons are first for the slaying of beasts in the chase and defense. We do not fashion weapons solely for the killing of man as do your peoples. Your country must indeed be a savage country, from which you are fortunate to have escaped to the peace and security of Caspak.”
Edgar Rice Burroughs, The People That Time Forgot

Dean Koontz
“You had a good dinner of properly fried food, and if you want to live long enough to have another one, you’ve got to weaponize properly.”
Dean Koontz, Deeply Odd

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Nobody today is nearly smart enough to make the sorts of weapons even the poorest nations had a million years ago. Yes, and they were being used all the time. During my lifetime, there wasn’t a day when, somewhere on the planet, there weren’t at least three wars going on. And the Law of Natural Selection was powerless to respond to such new technologies. No female of any species, unless maybe she was a rhinoceros, could expect to give birth to a baby who was fireproof, bombproof, or bulletproo”
Kurt Vonnegut, ³Ò²¹±ôá±è²¹²µ´Ç²õ

“Mac knocks on the door. After he updates Spider, he asks, “Do you have your weapon with you?â€�

David McKoy & Lynn Hallbrooks, Storm Warning

Michael Bassey Johnson, Stamerenophobia

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Karin Lowachee
“Their weapons were their words.”
Karin Lowachee, So Long Been Dreaming: Postcolonial Science Fiction and Fantasy

“Bullets bounced off his obsidian-hardened body; a body whose armour would have withstood even the greatest of nuclear weapons. Yet, an ache had gnawed at him, slicing through the armour of his heartless, battle-worn shell. No words, no weapon, could harm what had been forged, but the pain of their sacrifice, especially hers, remained—eternally engraved within his soul.”
Blade Seventh

Samraat Singh
“When the world is built on lies, the truth is the deadliest weapon.”
Samraat Singh, The Architect’s Web

“Blessed is he who has a keen Memory â€� Reminiscences are Friends, Teachers and even Weapons.”
Sino Melo

Swami Dhyan Giten
“Man needs peace, not war. Man needs love, not violence. We have been tortured enough with ideas of heros, war, propaganda, hate, destruction and violence.
Science has given us enough of destructive power and weapons that i f we go living in accordance with the old destructive values then and ideals humanity is finished.
The future belong to the new man, to the intelligent and creative people, not to the soldier.


Only love can give us the balance. Humanity has lived

against love up to now, and that is why there is so much

misery, hate, violence and destruction in the world. This is

because humanity has lived in a destructive way up to

now. Now there are only two alternatives: either

humanity changes or this is the end of humanity.



The time for the old values and ideals are over.We have to

live in accordance with a new life affirmative vision of life.”
Swami Dhyan Giten, The Way of the Heart
