A J P Taylor Quotes & Sayings

Below are more quotes by A J P Taylor.

No war is inevitable until it breaks out.

The great armies, accumulated to provide security and preserve the peace, carried the nations to war by their own weight.

No matter what political reasons are given for war, the underlying reason is always economic.

In my opinion, most of the great men of the past were only there for the beer - the wealth, prestige and grandeur that went with the power.
