- Change theme
Quotes by Lester B Pearson
- The choice, however, is as clear now for nations as it was once for the individual: peace or extinction.
- The grim fact is that we prepare for war like precocious giants, and for peace like retarded pygmies.
- The stark and inescapable fact is that today we cannot defend our society by war since total war is total destruction, and if war is used as an instrument of policy, eventually we will have total war.
- True there has been more talk of peace since 1945 than, I should think, at any other time in history. At least we hear more and read more about it because man's words, for good or ill, can now so easily reach the millions.
