Ludwig Quidde Quotes

So long as peace is not attained by law (so argue the advocates of armaments) the military protection of a country must not be undermined, and until such is the case disarmament is impossible Picture Quote #1
Among pacifists it was above all the English who always insisted on the importance of disarmament. They said that the man in the street would not understand the kind of pacifism that neglected to demand immediate restriction of armaments Picture Quote #1
The following year, after I had prepared my draft, the Conference of the Interparliamentary Union at the Hague decided to set up a special commission to study the problem seriously Picture Quote #1
Armaments are necessary - or are maintained on the pretext of necessity - because of a real or an imagined danger of war Picture Quote #1
So long as peace is not attained by law (so argue the advocates of armaments) the military protection of a country must not be undermined, and until such is the case disarmament is impossible Picture Quote #1
Limitation of armaments in itself is economically and financially important quite apart from security Picture Quote #1

In life, particularly in public life, psychology is more powerful than logic Picture Quote #1
Even a total and universal disarmament does not guarantee the maintenance of peace Picture Quote #1
Great progress was made when arbitration treaties were concluded in which the contracting powers pledge in advance to submit all conflicts to an arbitration court, treaties which not only specify the composition of the court, but also its procedure Picture Quote #1
Thus, if armaments were curtailed without a secure peace and all countries disarmed proportionately, military security would have been in no way affected Picture Quote #1
It will be sufficient to point to the enormous burdens which armaments place on the economic, social, and intellectual resources of a nation, as well as on its budget and taxes Picture Quote #1
Lightly armed nations can move toward war just as easily as those which are armed to the teeth, and they will do so if the usual causes of war are not removed Picture Quote #1

Disarmament or limitation of armaments, which depends on the progress made on security, also contributes to the maintenance of peace Picture Quote #1
The present level of armaments could be taken as the starting point. It could be stipulated in an international treaty that these armaments should be simultaneously and uniformly reduced by a certain proportion in all countries Picture Quote #1
We pacifists have not ceased to point to the grave danger of armaments and to insist on their curtailment Picture Quote #1
When distrust exists between governments, when there is a danger of war, they will not be willing to disarm even when logic indicates that disarmament would not affect military security at all Picture Quote #1
Time and time again we have experienced efforts directed toward this popular and simple concept of securing peace by means of disarmament Picture Quote #1
Pacifist propaganda and the resolutions of the parliamentarians encouraged such treaties, and toward the end of the nineteenth century their number had increased considerably Picture Quote #1
Advertisements
The security of which we speak is to be attained by the development of international law through an international organization based on the principles of law and justice Picture Quote #1
The relationship of the two problems is rather the reverse. To a great extent disarmament is dependent on guarantees of peace. Security comes first and disarmament second Picture Quote #1
The popular, and one may say naive, idea is that peace can be secured by disarmament and that disarmament must therefore precede the attainment of absolute security and lasting peace Picture Quote #1
Some pacifists have carried the sound idea of the prime importance of security too far, to the point of declaring that any consideration of disarmament is superfluous and pointless as long as eternal peace has not been attained Picture Quote #1
Every success in limiting armaments is a sign that the will to achieve mutual understanding exists, and every such success thus supports the fight for international law and order Picture Quote #1
