I prefer law to war under all circumstances.

If it's naive to want peace instead of war, let 'em make sure they say I'm naive. Because I want peace instead of war.

There can be no peace without justice, no justice without law and no meaningful law without a Court to decide what is just and lawful under any given circumstance.

Nuremberg taught me that creating a world of tolerance and compassion would be a long and arduous task. And I also learned that if we did not devote ourselves to developing effective world law, the same cruel mentality that made the Holocaust possible might one day destroy the entire human race.

War makes murderers out of otherwise decent people. All wars, and all decent people.
