Most of the work that's done in the world gets done by people who weren't feeling all that well at the time that they did it.

practically nothing we do ever stands by itself. If it is good, it will serve some good purpose in the future. If it is evil, it may haunt us and handicap our efforts in unimagined ways.

I feel quite sure that what the American people lack is knowledge.

I wish I really knew what the Republican foreign policy has been. I don't. I am a Democrat, and I really don't know what it has been.

Lest I keep my complacent way I must remember somewhere out there a person died for me today. As long as there must be war, I ask and I must answer was I worth dying for?

Anyone who thinks must think of the next war as they would of suicide.

I believe in active citizenship, for men and women equally, as a simple matter of right and justice. I believe we will have better government in all of our countries when men and women discuss public issues together and make their decisions on the basis of their different areas of experience and their common concern for the welfare of their families and their world.
