Quotations

The peace movement is not just a feast to eliminate wars. All the noble endeavors of union are united in it as in a center. Pacifism has both moral and improved order in its social program. Its goal is to create a new order for the future.” (1920, in Olga Slowik dissertation, 2014, p. 10; photo Wikipedia)
