Excerpt from The Need for a Secretary of Peace

We must learn to distinguish carefully between mere wishing for peace. Which is founded on the emotions of fear and hope. And constructive working for peace. Which. Based upon love and intelligence. Is an expression of our higher nature. What else but the art of clear thinking can serve as a basis for the development of such a will to promote peace?

Factual knowledge concerning war and peace treaties. As presented in the history of civilization. Does not arouse the mind in a positive manner. A superior kind of peace-know ledge will have to be used in order to educate public opinion. And thereby safeguard the common good. This would help to arouse and to maintain an intelligent interest in peace throughout the world. In this way. The ethical-social principles of peace would be accepted and practiced by more individ uals. Groups and nations.
