The world order needs a major overhaul.

the world is my idea

To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order; we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.

The world is not to be put in order. The world is order. It is for us to put ourselves in unison with this order.

We all know that the world is empty and that the important thing, the only thing, is to try to maintain order in that emptiness.

The world concerns me only in so far as I have a certain debt and duty to it, because I have lived in it for thirty years and owe to it to leave behind some souvenir in the shape of drawings and paintings – not done to please any particular movement, but within which a genuine human sentiment is expressed.

So, the world is fine. We don’t have to save the world — the world is big enough to look after itself. What we have to be concerned about, is whether or not the world we live in, will be capable of sustaining us in it. That’s what we need to think about.

When I was a teenager I wished for world peace, but now I yearn for a world in which competing ideologies are kept in balance, systems of accountability keep us all from getting away with too much, and fewer people believe that righteous ends justify violent means. Not a very romantic wish, but one that we might actually achieve.

The world is my country, mankind are my friends, to do good is my religion.

My country is the world, and my religion is to do good.

It's Your World...Pay Attention

I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any treat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.

The best order of things, to my way of thinking, is the one I was meant to be part of, and to hell with the most perfect of worlds if I am not of it.

The best order of things, as I see it, is the one that includes me; to hell with the most perfect of worlds, if I'm not part of it.
