The more that I know of politics the more it makes me realize that being a politician is largely useless.

When governments become large voters cannot exercise close oversight otherwise known as political power.

The largest party in America by the way is neither the Democrats nor the Republicans. It's the party of non-voters.

For poetry there exists neither large countries nor small. Its domain is in the heart of all men.

Our object should be peace within and peace without. We want to live peacefully and maintain cordial friendly relations with our immediate neighbours and with the world at large.

Ultimately we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves more and more peace and to reflect it towards others. And the more peace there is in us the more peace there will be in our troubled world.

No nation ever had an army large enough to guarantee it against attack in time of peace or ensure it of victory in time of war.

War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebrums and smaller adrenal glands.

Where there are large powers with little ambition... nature may be said to have fallen short of her purposes.

Nature is by and large to be found out of doors a location where it cannot be argued there are never enough comfortable chairs.
