More quotes by Jean Monnet
Europe has never existed. One must genuinely create Europe.
Jean Monnet
The fusion (of economic functions) would compel nations to fuse their sovereignty into that of a single European State.
Jean Monnet
There is no real peace in Europe, if the states are reconstituted on a basis of national sovereignty. (…) They must have larger markets. Their prosperity is impossible, unless the States of Europe form themselves in a European Federation.
Jean Monnet
Men only act in a state of necessity and usually only recognise necessity in a situation of crisis.
Jean Monnet
Building Union among people not cooperation between states
