At both ages, the struggle for independence exists hand in hand with the often hidden wish to be contained and protected while striving to move forward in the world.

    —Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)

    “A point has been reached where the peoples of the Americas must take cognizance of growing ill-will, of marked trends toward aggression, of increasing armaments, of shortening tempers—a situation which has in it many of the elements that lead to the tragedy of general war....

    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
