I would rather propose a bureau somewhat similar to that which we have in the Universal Postal Union.

Waging war we understand, but not waging peace, or at any rate less consciously so.

By a great man, however, we mean a man who, because of his spiritual gifts, his character, and other qualities, deserves to be called great and who as a result earns the power to influence others.

A sign that a peace association is going adrift is its exclusion of other political parties, with whom it could collaborate effectively on most of the problems besetting the cause of peace.

Pacifists should stress more and more that it is the rule of law for which they are fighting.

Warfare has been marvelously developed. It will soon be impossible to raise it to further heights.

But I feel convinced, and I venture even to prophesy in this regard, that the time will come when there will also be a minister of peace in the cabinet, seated beside the ministers of war.

There are in most states one or two ministers of war, one of whom is the minister of naval affairs.

Always we must bear in mind that law has to be substituted for power, that care must be taken to serve the interests of law.

The interparliamentary conference should, in my opinion, direct its particular attention to the preparation of the next Hague Conference, the diplomatic conference, the conference of governments.

This was the tricky bit. The really tricky bit, trickiness cubed.

I think when you write, you should call it a "writing spree." I don't write every day, and I don't write regularly.

Poetry is philosophy's sister, the one that wears makeup.

No political dreamer was ever wild enough to think of breaking down the lines which separate the States and compounding the American people into one common mass.

You can't be truly rude until you understand good manners.

Those desiring to escape from suffering hasten right toward suffering. With the very desire for happiness, out of delusion they destroy their own happiness as if it were an enemy

Success is brought by continued labor and continued watchfulness. We must struggle on, not for one moment hesitate, nor take one backward step.
