Civilization; Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow



"You can't say civilization doesn't advance ... In every war they kill you in a new way."
- Will Rogers, American Entertainer

"As long as our civilization is esentially one of property, of fences, of exclusiveness, it will be mocked by delusions." - Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet

"Today we are faced with the preeminent fact that, if civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships - the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world, at peace."
- Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd US President
