War
War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn to live together in peace by killing each other's children.
Jimmy Carter, accepting the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize.

I have never advocated war except as a means of peace.
Ulysses S. Grant

The time not to become a father is eighteen years before a war.
E. B. White

War is never a solution. It is the trigger for greater and more horrible evils. Hatreds caused by wars fester and spread their poisons in the souls of humans more viciously than the worst weapons of biological warfare, destroying not only the enemy, but the souls of innocent warriors who thought they were saving the world. Hatred unleashed by war is the most virulent weapon of mass destruction.
Joseph F. Girzone in Joshua in a Troubled World

Wisdom
The art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.
William James

It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it.
Sam Levenson

It's a wise man who profits by his own experience, but it's a good deal wiser one who lets the rattlesnake bite the other fellow.
Josh Billings

Work
Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice.
Henry Ford

Worry - Cares
Before you go to bed at night give all of your cares and worries to God. He'll be up all night anyway.
Unknown

Worship
Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have. Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love-gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship. If you hoard it for yourself, it will turn into spiritual dry rot, as the manna did when it was hoarded (Exodus 16:20). God will never allow you to keep a spiritual blessing completely for yourself. It must be given back to Him so that He can make it a blessing to others.
Oswald Chambers.

Youth
The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
Lucille Ball
