Epigrams for my second book
"The Civility of Yankee Imperialism: The United States and Latin America since 1776"
“I suppose that in our hearts we know that we shall rule the world.”
Woodrow Wilson, “Address at Swarthmore: The University and the Nation,” 15 December 1905, in Arthur Link, et al., editors, The Papers of Woodrow Wilson in 69 volumes (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1966-1993), Volume 16, p. 268.
“Man is older than the State and the latter must be the former’s servant. As such the State must serve the common good… Democracy can endure only so long as it develops those works of social justice, which are inherent within it.”
Spruille Braden, “Address to the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers,” 14 March 1947, file folder Speeches, Box 25, Spruille Braden Papers, Butler Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Columbia University, New York, NY.
“My activism did not spring from my being gay, or for that matter, from my being black. Rather it is rooted, fundamentally, in my Quaker upbringing and the values that were instilled in me by my grandparents who reared me. These values are based on the concept of a single human family and the belief that all members of that family are equal. Adhering to those values has meant making a stand against injustice, to the best of my ability, whenever and wherever it occurs.”
Bayard Rustin to Joseph Beam, 21 April 1986, file folder 8, Box 6, Bayard Rustin Papers, Manuscript Division, Library of Congress, Washington, DC.
“For now we see through a glass, darkly, but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”
1 Corinthians 13: 13
