"With
all my heart I believe that the world's present system of sovereign
nations can lead only to barbarism, war and inhumanity. There is no
salvation for civilization, or even the human race, other than the
creation of a world government." - Albert Einstein
"Unless some effective supranational government can be set up and brought quickly into action, the prospects of peace and human progress are dark and doubtful." - Winston Churchill "The age of nations has passed. Now, unless we wish to perish, we must shake off our old prejudices and build the Earth. The more scientifically I regard the world, the less can I see any possible biological future for it except in the active consciousness of its unity." - Teilhard de Chardin "Have I said clearly enough that the European Community we created is not an end in itself? It is a process of change, continuing in the same process which in an earlier period produced our national forms of life. The sovereign nations of the past can no longer solve the problems of the present: they cannot ensure their own progress or control their own future. And the Community itself is only a stage on the way of the organized world of tomorrow." - Jean Monnet, Conceiver of the European Community, now European Union

From
the age of 6, Susan Lieu was a powerhouse, answering the phone and
removing customers' nail polish at her family's Bay Area nail salon.
When she was 12, her world came crashing down when her mother, who had
survived a harrowing escape from Vietnam years earlier, died
unexpectedly of surgical complications. The experience took much from
Lieu, but gave her something that sustains her to this day. After her
mother's seemingly senseless death, Lieu said, "I was determined to
have a purpose." Since then, the Oakland, CA resident has earned a
bachelor's degree from Harvard, supported sustainable farming methods
in Vietnam, worked with an AIDS project in an African refugee camp, and
started a successful chocolate business. All in the span of a
quarter-century! [
