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

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.

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.

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.

I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel.

We have souls. Sure we do. Otherwise we'd do bad things all the time. You know, like politicians.

I suppose I felt guilty not to be doing something more important, more political. So in a way I am trying to use the company for these other activities.

You can take the girl out of the library, but you can’t take the neurotic, compulsively curious librarian out of the girl.

Time is running out for us But you just move the hands upon the clock You throw coins in the wishing well For us You just move your hands upon the wall
