The very idea that there is some kind of conflict between science and religion is completely mistaken. Science is a method for investigating experience... Religion is the fundamental, necessary internalization of our system of more permanent values.
Carroll Quigley
Image
True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information.
Winston Churchill
Image
The Iraq War was the first conflict in western history in which an imperialist war was massively protested against before it had even been launched.
Noam Chomsky
Image
I actually think that the Russians are exploring the idea: Is it worth ending this conflict in the Donbass in eastern Ukraine, creating peace, getting out, and what would that look like? I don't think they're committed to it yet I don't think they've made a decision one way or the other - but I think they're exploring it.
Kurt Volker

Revival comes from heaven when heroic souls enter the conflict determined to win or die - or if need be, to win and die! The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
Charles Grandison Finney
Image
The great lesson of history for us is that strength and resolve bring peace and order, and weakness and vacillation invite chaos and conflict.
Rick Perry
Image
Is war an inevitable outcome of competing interests in a complex society? In other words, would war be the same even if human nature were very different? There are mathematical models of large groups working together that lead to conflict on a reliable basis. So there's a whole other view of war that is not psychological at all.

Humankind has understood history as a series of battles because, to this day, it regards conflict as the central facet of life.
Anton Chekhov
Image
Pharmaceutical companies have too much influence over the education of physicians in this country. They have too much control over the evaluation of their own products, and that's a conflict of interest. I think the industry needs to be regulated, but I've never suggested taking it out of the market altogether.
Marcia Angell
Image
I always have a very good relationship with galleries, a lot of galleries and artists, so I don't want any conflict situations.
Patrick Seguin
Image
I always like to try different things, different genres stories that have a dramatic element and can generate conflict which I find appealing where the characters have to overcome obstacles. That kind of thing is challenging.
Clint Eastwood
Image
I had assumed that Bush's seemingly inflexible policy to support Sharon was for political reasons of his getting elected. But as to whether he really believes his actions are going to hasten the day of the final conflict, I do not know.
Huston Smith
Image
Nothing in the Shastras, which is capable of being reasoned, can stand if it is in conflict with reason.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity. For Chance rarely conflicts with intelligence, and most things in life can be set in order by an intelligent sharpsightedness.
Democritus
Image
We've given Iraq a chance. Now they need to stand on their own. This is a 1,400-year-old conflict, and unless we are prepared to bankrupt ourselves spending another 1,400 years policing it, we need to stay out.
Rick Nolan
Image
When you resort to shouting in conflict, you are reacting in the flesh. You have lost control of the only person you can control: yourself.
Neil T Anderson
Image
Basically it's true that my own life has been my chief window for life in America, beginning with my childhood and the conflicts, the struggles, the strains that I felt in my own family.
John Updike
Image
Any approach to strategy quickly encounters a conflict between corporate objectives and corporate capabilities. Attempting the impossible is not good strategy. It is just a waste of resources.
Bruce Henderson
Image
We humans have always sought to increase our personal energy in the only manner we have known, by seeking to psychologically steal it from the others--an unconscious competition that underlies all human conflict in the world.
James Redfield
Image
Let us ever remember that our interest is in concord, not in conflict and that our real eminence rests in the victories of peace, not those of war.
William McKinley
Image
Sometimes when you take a tough action against one side in the conflict, they see you as part of the conflict and they attack you.
Kofi Annan
Image
Creativity comes from a conflict of ideas.
Donatella Versace
Image
Borderlines create the vicious circles they fear most. They become angry and drive the relationship to the breaking point, then switch to a posture of helplessness and contrition, beg for reconciliation. If both parties are equally enmeshed, chaos and conflict become the soul of the relationship.
Theodore Millon
Image
The main achievement of economics is that it has provided a theory of peaceful human cooperation. This is why the harbingers of violent conflict have branded it as a dismal science and why this age of wars, civil wars, and destruction has no use for it.
