Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone
“All our history gives confirmation to the view that liberty of conscience has a moral and social value which makes it worthy of preservation at the hands of the state.”
Donald Saunders
“War never solves anything – it accentuates any problem… There is no moral or humanitarian justification for it.”
Harold Pinter
“It was difficult being a conscientious objector in the 1940’s, but I felt I had to stick to my guns.”
Albert Einstein
“The conscientious objector is a revolutionary … he sacrifices his personal interests to the most important cause of working for the betterment of society.”
