"In politics, as in war and in business, men show the fighting instincts that we share with the animal creations. But in our powers of cooperation, as in our powers of learning, we far surpass our fellow living creatures. Moreover we can consciously look at ourselves and see our imperfections. We can strive and learn to lessen them. This striving, this learning, can be lifelong for each one of us. For mankind as a whole, it can continue from generation to generation. Looking back to man's past, what development we see. We cannot probe the future, but humanly speaking we can rest our greatest hopes in this internal, this universal adventure in learning."
