Georges Clemenceau

War is too serious a matter to entrust to military men. ”

A man's life is interesting primarily when he has failed - I well know. For it's a sign that he tried to surpass himself. ”

A man who waits to believe in action before acting is anything you like, but he's not a man of action. You must act as you breathe. ”

In order to act, you must be somewhat insane. A reasonably sensible man is satisfied with thinking. ”

It is far easier to make war than peace. ”

I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace an interlude during war. ”

My home policy: I wage war; my foreign policy: I wage war. All the time I wage war. ”
