Quotations

"If we could get the nations of the world to subscribe to [the Universal Declaration of Human Rights], so they would have to bring their societies up to the point of living up to the requirements of the Universal Declaration, we would go such a long way to making the world much more peaceful, much more harmonious and much more just for humans." (Moving Mountains One Stone at a Time: Memoirs of Margaret Moseley, p. 17, 1993)
