These proposals spring, without ulterior motive or political passion, from our calm conviction that the hunger for peace is in the hearts of all people - those of Russia and of China no less than of our own country.

No people on earth can be held, as a people, to be an enemy, for all humanity shares the common hunger for peace and fellowship and justice.

If the people of the world are to conduct an intelligent search for peace, they must be armed with the significant facts of today's existence.

People want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.

Our greatest hope for success lies in a universal fact: the people of the world, as people, have always wanted peace and want peace now. The problem, then, is to find a way of translating this universal desire into action. This will require more than words of peace. It requires works of peace.

I like to believe that people, in the long run, are going to do more to promote peace than our governments.
