3 quotes from War is a Racket
- "War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious."
- "To me, war is the most heinous thing in the world. Men die in wars, women and children are shattered, and there's the loss of life and the destruction of property."
- "I spent thirty-three years and four months in active service as a member of our country's most agile military force - the Marine Corps. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for big business, for Wall Street, and the bankers."
