More quotes by Leon Bourgeois
All men equal in rights and duties, all men equally responsible for the destiny of mankind - what a dream!
Leon Bourgeois
To assert that it is possible to establish peace between men of different nations is simply to assert that man, whatever his ethnical background, his race, religious beliefs, or philosophy, is capable of reason. Two forces within the individual contribute to the development of his conscience and of his morality: reason and sensitivity.
Leon Bourgeois
