Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Peace When I was asked last August to prepare a book on the terms of peace, I consented to have it ready by March, 1919. My publishers thought that it should be ready by February first if it was to anticipate the march of events. The writing was completed in October, but even so, events have gotten ahead. It is some consolation to know that the whole world shares in this miscalculation. Neither the peoples nor their governments, the knowing ones who had all the inside information, were prepared for this headlong precipitancy. A letter from one of the staff of the Department of State at Washington expresses the surprise, not to say the consternation, of the government at this sudden development for which we were so eager and yet so utterly unprepared. It was in anticipation of this unpreparedness that the book was written, and yet I too am caught among the unprepared. Naturally I have considered carefully whether any change should be made in the text as the proofs pass through my hands, but save for a few footnotes and minor changes, I have left it as it was written. The difficulty in the phraseology, - all of it appropriate to the situation of last September, - is pervasive. Adaptation to the situation of today would mean re-writing. But it is only the phraseology that the armistice has rendered out of date. The problems remain, - not one of them settled despite confident and contradictory newspaper assertion. Even the signing of the treaty of peace, an event for which we must perhaps long wait in patience, will bring to most of them no immediate solution.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Peace: Being a New Year's Greeting to Our Motherland and the Nations at Present in Conflict and a Welcome to Them All to the Feast of the Great Peace And the men who feel themselves called or impelled so to fight are yet under the law of this present world order, and they would certainly be doing a serious and great wrong, both to their own soul or real nature, and to their country, by shirking their responsibility in refus ing so to fight. For theirs, too, is an inner or divine urge or inspiring force, but it is not the Christly urge. It is yet of the Genius of the world-soul or present order. But if we are in the Christ-degree we are under the law of Christ, and the righteousness of the Christ-order, and that alone, can we fulfil.

Download or read book The Great Peace written by Mena Suvari and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A memoir by award-winning actor Mena Suvari, best-known forher iconic roles in American Beauty, American Pie, and Six Feet Under. The Great Peace is a harrowing, heartbreaking coming-of-age story set in Hollywood, in which young teenage model-turned-actor Mena Suvari lost herself to sex, drugs and bad, often abusive relationships even as blockbuster movies made her famous. It's about growing up in the 90s, with a soundtrack ranging from The Doors to Deee-Lite, fashion from denim to day-glo, and a woman dealing with the lasting psychological scars of abuse, yet knowing deep inside she desires so much more from life. Within these vulnerable pages, Mena not only reveals her own mistakes, but also the lessons she learned and her efforts to understand and grow rather than casting blame. As such, she makes this a timeless story of girl empowerment and redemption, of somebody using their voice to rediscover their past, seek redemption, and to understand their mistakes, and ultimately come to terms with their power as an individual to find a way and a will to live—and thrive. Poignant, intimate, and powerful, this book will resonate with anyone who has found themselves lost in the darkness, thinking there's no way out. Ultimately, Mena's story proves that, no matter how hopeless it may seem, there's always a light at the end.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Fourth Year: Anticipations of a World Peace In the latter half of 1914 a few of us were writing that this war was a "War of Ideas." A phrase, "The War to end War," got into circulation, amidst much sceptical comment. It was a phrase powerful enough to sway many men, essentially pacifists, towards taking an active part in the war against German imperialism, but it was a phrase whose chief content was its aspiration. People were already writing in those early days of disarmament and of the abolition of the armament industry throughout the world; they realized fully the element of industrial belligerency behind the shining armour of imperialism, and they denounced the "Krupp-Kaiser" alliance. But against such writing and such thought we had to count, in those days, great and powerful realities. Even to those who expressed these ideas there lay visibly upon them the shadow of impracticability; they were very "advanced" ideas in 1914, very Utopian. Against them was an unbroken mass of mental habit and public tradition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace In these days of troubles and anxieties, when the world is suffering from wantsand difficulties, when ambition and avarice are the main features that guide the principles of men, it would be essential that a few words of consolation be. Written to bring men to their senses, and to cause them to desist from the course they have adopted. The real cause of their trouble however, lies not in the world outside, which they think has robbed them of or intruded upon their conveniences of life but it has its origin in their hearts within, 'which unless re moved, cannot bring in peace to them. I am not however, certain how far these instructions will be appreciated by men, and they may pass-off unnoticed aschaff before a raging wind; yet as they are in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A small American city is under siege. A group of starving artists- led by a reclusive, sweatpants-wearing billionaire- are determined to overthrow the government by any means necessary. With little hope for peace, a neurotic young gadabout- fresh off a failed suicide attempt- takes it upon himself to save his hometown from ruin. Along the way he encounters revolutionaries, nitwits, weirdos, perverts, dreamers, and something called Danceramics. Humorous, absurd, and often profound, The Great Peace takes on art, politics, philosophy, and class with unflinching verve and wit.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Peace: Being a Collection of Prose and Verse The idea for the Book of Peace was given by a little volume, perhaps weighted by the title of The Mother's Sabbath Month. Al though this colleetion follows in its steps, it would not be restrieted in its purpose. It has been written for the service of those attending on any who cannot, for the time being, read to themselves. Like David's harp to the spirit of Saul, to these it would bring peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Hundred Years of Peace Ever brief, of the relations between Great Britain and the United States since 1812 is to possess any value, it can only be through showing how, by slow steps, with many interruptions and much bitterness on both sides, we have nevertheless finally attained to the genuine friendship in which all sen sible men of both countries rejoice to-day. This fortunate condition has been reached only after many years of storm and stress, which it seems to posterity, always blessed with that unerring wisdom which comes after the event, might have been easily avoided. To understand the present situation aright, to comprehend the meaning and effects of the war of 1812 and Of the ninety eight years of peace which have followed its conclusion, it is necessary to begin with the separation of the two countries by the Treaty of Paris in 1782, when the connec tion between England and the United States ceased to be that of mother country and colonies and became the more distant rela tion which exists between two independent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Only Possible Peace It is of the utmost importance that America should know the kind of peace it wants. For America has lost her isolation. She has become a world-power. Our economic relations are as wide as the world. The peace which follows will determine our foreign policy. It will make for permanent peace or it may lay the mines of future wars. Previous peace settlements have been interim arrangements negotiated by the ruling classes. They have been truce agreements. War has, in fact, been continuous. At times it was a war of diplomacy. At intervals it became armed conflict. But in some form or other Europe has been at war for the last fifty years. The conflict was not always between the same Powers. Alliances shifted. The points in dispute were often far apart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace-Making at Paris In writing this book I have made some use of articles which I contributed to a number of papers during the proceedings in Paris. Particularly to the Westminster Gazette, to the Contemporary Review, to the Daily Graphic do I wish to make grateful acknowledgment. This is not a day-by-day account of the negotiations; occasionally I have had to sacrifice purely chronological order, which would have meant jumping from subject to subject like a grasshopper (to employ a figure of speech which became famous), and have grouped a series of events under one head. Nor have I discussed in detail the multiplicity of questions which arose: that would be an interminable task which would be appreciated by few readers.
