There will be little drudgery in this better ordered world.
Natural power harnessed in machines will be the general drudge.
What drudgery is inevitable will be done as a service and duty
for a few years or months out of each life; it will not consume
nor degrade the whole life of anyone.
Topic: Work

If we suppose a sufficient righteousness and intelligence in men
to produce presently, from the tremendous lessons of history, an
effective will for a world peace--that is to say, an effective
will for a world law under a world government--for in no other
fashion is a secure world peace conceivable--in what manner may
we expect things to move towards this end? . . . It is an
educational task, and its very essence is to bring to the minds
of all men everywhere, as a necessary basis for world
cooperation, a new telling and interpretation, a common
interpretation, of history.
