Only one thing can conquer war - that attitude of mind which can see nothing in war but destruction and annihilation.

Ludwig von Mises

Learned Institutions ought to be favorite objects with every free people. They throw that light over the public mind which is the best security against crafty & dangerous encroachments on the public liberty.

James Madison

In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot

Mark Twain

This time, like all times, is a very good time - if we but know what to do with it

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Don't be crazy to do a lot of things you can't do .

Edward W. Howe

My dream of politics all my life has been that it is the common business, that it is something we owe to each other to understand and discuss with absolute frankness.

Woodrow Wilson

But while we all pray for peace, we do not always, as free citizens, support the policies that make for peace or reject those which do not. We want our own kind of peace, brought about in our own way.

Lester B. Pearson
