It has been claimed that the aim of the present war is to end war. But war cannot end war, neither can militarism destroy militarism.

A change of heart is the essence of all other change, and it has brought about me a reeducation of the mind.

There are only two forces that can withstand the force of the war's spirit when it seizes upon the world. The one is the force of an independently thinking, free, and articulate democracy. The other is the force of an instructed and enlightened public opinion.

Drunkenness was extremely common… It seemed for many the only refuge from depression and misery. The effect of drunkenness upon the ordinary relationship of husband and wife, parents and children, was disastrous.
