Famous quotes containing the words mission and/or purpose:

    The mission of the United States is one of benevolent assimilation.
    William McKinley (1843–1901)

    Civilization is a process in the service of Eros, whose purpose is to combine single human individuals, and after that families, then races, peoples and nations, into one great unity, the unity of mankind. Why this has to happen, we do not know; the work of Eros is precisely this.
