1 " No experience can ever be repeated, and in this fact we find all the tragedy of life and at the same time its glory—its irrepressible movement. "
― Mary Parker Follett
2 " We have thought of peace as the passive and war as the active way of living. The opposite is true. War is not the most strenuous life. It is a kind of rest-cure compared to the task of reconciling our differences. "

― Mary Parker Follett , The New State: Group Organization the Solution of Popular Government
