  By: Gerald R. Ford

  War Quotes
• "Of what significance is one's one existence, one is basically unaware. What does a fish know about the water in which he swims all his life? The bitter and the sweet come from outside. The hard from within, from one's own efforts. For the most part I do what my own nature drives me to do. It is embarrassing to earn such respect and love for it."
  By: Albert Einstein
  War Quotes
• "I am absolutely convinced that no wealth in the world can help humanity forward, even in the hands of the most devoted worker.

Can anyone imagine Moses, Jesus or Ghandi armed with the money-bags of Carnegie?"
  By: Albert Einstein

  By: Albert Einstein
  War Quotes
• "Innumerable voices have been asserting for some time now that human society is passing through a crisis, that its stability has been gravely shattered. It is characteristic of such a situation that individuals feel indifferent or even hostile toward the group, small or large, to which they belong. In order to illustrate my meaning, let me record here a personal experience. I recently discussed with an intelligent and well-disposed man the threat of another war, which in my opinion would seriously endanger the existence of mankind, and I remarked that only a supranational organization would offer protection from that danger. Thereupon my visitor, very calmly and coolly, said to me: "Why are you so deeply opposed to the disappearance of the human race?"
  By: Albert Einstein
