"As a soldier, I survived World War I when most of my comrades did not." ― Lester B. Pearson Topic(s): Communication More From Lester B. Pearson "It would be especially tragic if the people who most cherish ideals of peace, who are most anxious for political cooperation on a wider than national scale, made the mistake of underestimating the pace of economic change in our modern world." "Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects." "True there has been more talk of peace since 1945 than, I should think, at any other time in history. At least we hear more and read more about it because man’s words, for good or ill, can now so easily reach the millions."

The songs are supposed to be a way of communicating. But speech and drinks and sometimes chocolates are also a way of communicating."― Jarvis Cocker "It is vital that the United States maintains open lines of communication with our allies. We must assure them of our commitment to eradicating global terrorism wherever it may reside or wherever it’s given haven."― George Allen
