“The mobilization of world opinion and methods of negotiation should be developed and used by every nation in order to strengthen the United Nations.”

Eleanor Roosevelt My Day

My Day (1935–1962)
Context: The mobilization of world opinion and methods of negotiation should be developed and used by every nation in order to strengthen the United Nations. Then if we are forced into war, it will be because there has been no way to prevent it through negotiation and the mobilization of world opinion. In which case we should have the voluntary support of many nations, which is far better than the decision of one nation alone, or even of a few nations. (16 April 1954)

“Some US journalist came up to me and said: 'How can you say this about President Bush?' Well, I think what I said then was quite mild.

Ken Livingstone (1945) Mayor of London between 2000 and 2008

As quoted in "Livingstone says Bush is 'greatest threat to life on planet'" by Nigel Morris, in The Independent (18 November 2003), p. 5.
