I abhor unjust war. I abhor injustice and bullying by the strong at the expense of the weak, whether among nations or individuals. I abhor violence and bloodshed. I believe that war should never be resorted to when, or so long as, it is honorably possible to avoid it.

I advocate preparation for war in order to avert war; and I should never advocate war unless it were the only alternative to dishonor.
