Earth Policy

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or policy:

    The earth is not earth but a stone,
    Not the mother that held men as they fell
    But stone, but like a stone, no: not
    The mother, but an oppressor, but like
    An oppressor that grudges them their death,
    As it grudges the living that they live.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    In the field of world policy I would dedicate this Nation to the policy of the Good Neighbor—the neighbor who resolutely respects himself and, because he does, respects the rights of others—the neighbor who respects his obligations and respects the sanctity of his agreements in and with a world of neighbors.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
