 "The implication of this and similar speeches appears to be that the love of peace is almost an exclusively American virtue, and that the enmi- ties distracting Europe have their roots in savage passion for war in itself. It is implicated that these enmities arrive from jealous fears from which America is free. If she is free from such jealousies, it is simply through historical and geographical accidents, and not from any virtue possessed by it's rulers"
