Famous quotes containing the word organization:

    Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.
    —Constitution of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)

    ... every woman’s organization recognizes that reformers are far more common than feminists, that the passion to look after your fellow man, and especially woman, to do good to her in your way is far more common than the desire to put into every one’s hand the power to look after themselves.
    Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    Democracy means the organization of society for the benefit and at the expense of everybody indiscriminately and not for the benefit of a privileged class.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
