More quotes by Adlai E. Stevenson
Nature is indifferent to the survival of the human species, including Americans.
Adlai E. Stevenson
I believe that if we really want human brotherhood to spread and increase until it makes life safe and sane, we must also be certain that there is no one true faith or path by which it may spread.
Adlai E. Stevenson
You will find that the truth is often unpopular and the contest between agreeable fancy and disagreeable fact is unequal. For, in the vernacular, we Americans are suckers for good news.
Adlai E. Stevenson
The university is the archive of the Western mind, it's the keeper of the Western culture, ... the guardian of our heritage, the teacher of our teachers, ... the dwelling place of the free mind.
Adlai E. Stevenson
We have confused the free with the free and easy.
Adlai E. Stevenson

Adlai E. Stevenson
The whole basis of the United Nations is the right of all nations–great or small–to have weight, to have a vote, to be attended to, to be a part of the twentieth century.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Nature is neutral. Man has wrested from nature the power to make the world a desert or make the deserts bloom. There is no evil in the atom only in men's souls.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Peace is the one condition of survival in this nuclear age.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Flattery is all right so long as you don't inhale.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Your days are short here this is the last of your springs. And now in the serenity and quiet of this lovely place, touch the depths of truth, feel the hem of Heaven. You will go away with old, good friends. And don't forget when you leave why you came.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Nixon is finding out there are no tails on an Eisenhower jacket.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Law is not a profession at all, but rather a business service station and repair shop.
Adlai E. Stevenson
What a man knows at fifty that he did not know at twenty is, for the most part, incommunicable.
Adlai E. Stevenson
There is...a spiritual hunger in the world today and it cannot be satisfied...by better cars on longer credit terms.
Adlai E. Stevenson
After four years at the United Nations I sometimes yearn for the peace and tranquility of a political convention.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set.
Adlai E. Stevenson
The first principle of a free society is an untrammeled flow of words in an open forum.
Adlai E. Stevenson
When an American says that he loves his country, he means not only that he loves the New England hills, the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains, the great mountains, and the sea. He means that he loves an inner air, an inner light in which freedom lives and in which a man can draw the breath of self-respect.
Adlai E. Stevenson
Every age needs men who will redeem the time by living with a vision of the things that are to be.
Adlai E. Stevenson
