We pacifists have not ceased to point to the grave danger of armaments and to insist on their curtailment.

Lightly armed nations can move toward war just as easily as those which are armed to the teeth, and they will do so if the usual causes of war are not removed.

Every success in limiting armaments is a sign that the will to achieve mutual understanding exists, and every such success thus supports the fight for international law and order.

We pacifists have not ceased to point to the grave danger of armaments and to insist on their curtailment.

In life, particularly in public life, psychology is more powerful than logic.

Limitation of armaments in itself is economically and financially important quite apart from security.

Let us assume that the ideal were reached; let us imagine a state of international life in which the danger of war no longer exists. Then no one would dare to demand a penny for obviously completely superfluous armaments.
