"But could not our situation be compared to one of a menacing epidemic? People are unable to view this situation in its true light, for their eyes are blinded by passion. General fear and anxiety create hatred and aggressiveness. The adaptation to warlike aims and activities has corrupted the mentality of man; as a result, intelligent, objective and humane thinking has hardly any effect and is even suspected and persecuted as unpatriotic." ~A.Einstein [The Menace of Mass Destruction].
"We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive."–A.E.
"Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice."—Benedict de Spinoza
"Mankind's desire for peace can be realized only by the creation of a world government."–A.E.
