Quote by William Glasser

Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first.

Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next

Summary

This quote suggests that instead of waiting for a war to end and then holding peace negotiations, it would be wiser to reverse the order and hold a peace conference beforehand. The implication is that in the event of a war, there is a risk of losing key decision-makers or negotiators who could potentially contribute to peace talks. Hence, by prioritizing a peace conference earlier, there would be a greater chance of resolving conflicts and fostering understanding between parties before the destructive consequences of war occur.
