The whole history of the world is summed up in the fact that, when nations are strong, they are not always just, and when they wish to be just, they are no longer strong.

Every nation must now develop an overriding loyalty to mankind as a whole in order to preserve the best in their individual societies.

Since the dawn of history, mankind has honoured and respected brave and honest people.

The whole book of history reveals mankind's never-ending quest for peace, and mankind's God-given capacity to build.

A nation that forgets its past has no future.

I see a lot of patterns in our behavior as a nation that parallel a lot of other historical processes.
