“There is no path to peace except as the will of peoples may open to it. The way of peace is through agreement, not through force.”

Charles Evans Hughes (1862–1948) American judge

The Pathway of Peace (1923)
Context: There is no path to peace except as the will of peoples may open to it. The way of peace is through agreement, not through force. The question then is not of any ambitious scheme to prevent war, but simply of the constant effort, which is the highest task of statesmanship in relation to every possible cause of strife, to diminish a people's disposition to resort to force and to find a just and reasonable basis for accord. If the energy, ability, and sagacity equal to that now devoted to preparation for war could be concentrated upon such efforts aided by the urgent demands of an intelligent public opinion, addressed not to impossibilities but to the removal or adjustment of actual differences, we should make a sure approach to our goal.

“The way to make peace is not through governments. It is through people.”

Shimon Peres (1923–2016) Israeli politician, 8th prime minister and 9th president of Israel
