“Modern society, based as it is on the division of labor, can be preserved only u…” — Ludwig von Mises

Wars of aggression are popular nowadays with those nations convinced that only victory and conquest could improve their material well-being.

The state can be and has often been in the course of history the main source of mischief and disaster.

War can really cause no economic boom, at least not directly, since an increase in wealth never does result from destruction of goods.

The root of the evil is not the construction of new, more dreadful weapons. It is the spirit of conquest.
