“It’s no go the picture palace, it’s no go the stadium,
It’s no go the country cot with a pot of pink geraniums.

Sit on your arse for fifty years and hang your hat on a pension.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
“I can not believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.”

“The object of government in peace and in war is not the glory of rulers or of races, but the happiness of the common man.”
—William, Lord Beveridge (1879–1963)
