-- Henri La Fontaine -
“The peoples are not awake...[There are dangers] which will render a world organization impossible. I foresee the renewal of...the secret bargaining behind closed doors.

International institutions ought to be, as the national ones in democratic countries, established by the peoples and for the peoples.”
