“Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity”

George Carlin

Simplified Meaning:

Trying to create peace by using violence is as pointless and contradictory as trying to stay pure by having sex. It's like saying you want to stop fighting, but you keep hitting people to make them stop. For example, when two countries go to war saying they want to bring peace, what usually happens is more destruction and suffering, not peace. It's better to use peaceful methods, like talking and understanding each other, to really solve problems. This way, you can build true friendship and trust. So, if you want peace, act peacefully.
