Famous quotes containing the word organization:

    “The Red Cross in its nature, it aims and purposes, and consequently, its methods, is unlike any other organization in the country. It is an organization of physical action, of instantaneous action, at the spur of the moment; it cannot await the ordinary deliberation of organized bodies if it would be of use to suffering humanity, ... [ellipsis in original] it has by its nature a field of its own.”
    —Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    “Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.”
    —Constitution of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)

    “Science, unguided by a higher abstract principle, freely hands over its secrets to a vastly developed and commercially inspired technology, and the latter, even less restrained by a supreme culture saving principle, with the means of science creates all the instruments of power demanded from it by the organization of Might.”
    —Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
