Famous quotes containing the words world, climate and/or conference:
“The world leans on us. When we sag, the whole world seems to droop.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“The question of place and climate is most closely related to the question of nutrition. Nobody is free to live everywhere; and whoever has to solve great problems that challenge all his strength actually has a very restricted choice in this matter.

—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“The peace conference must not adjourn without the establishment of some ordered system of international government, backed by power enough to give authority to its decrees. ...

—Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
