Quote by Martin Luther King, Jr.

War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow.

War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow.

Summary

This quote suggests that the use of war as a means of achieving goals or solving problems is ineffective and inefficient. It highlights that war may provide immediate results, but it does little to contribute to a better and more prosperous future. Just as a poor quality chisel produces unsatisfactory results, resorting to armed conflict only creates destruction, suffering, and long-term consequences that hinder progress and prevent the building of a better tomorrow.
