Quotes from Agnes Newton Keith

We are not pleasant people here, for the story of war is always the story of hate; it makes no difference with whom one fights. The hate destroys you.

Meanwhile, sitting in the lounge talking, listening to the radio broadcasts, we learned the pay-off. The world had not changed...Love of country flourished, while love of humanity withered; worship of God was present, and following of Christ was absent. This was the victory we had won. This was the world men had bought with their blood. This was peace.
