“We maintain, on the contrary, that war is simply a continuation of political intercourse, with the addition of other means. We deliberately use the phrase “with the addition of other means” because we also want to make it clear that war in itself does not suspend political intercourse or change it into something entirely different. In essentials that intercourse continues, irrespective of the means it employs.”
― Carl von Clausewitz

“Each thinking mind is a political mind.”
― Zaman Ali, HUMANITY Understanding Reality and Inquiring Good

“They want very specific answers from science. Black and white answers to complex questions. Everything sorted into predetermined boxes.”
― Adrian Tchaikovsky, Alien Clay

“The political object is the goal, war is the means of reaching it, and means can never be considered in isolation from their purpose”
― Carl von Clausewitz, On War
