Description

Long and poignant Keller handwritten quote: ““It is during periods of peace that nations become civilized”

AQS, in pencil, on an off-white 10 x 7 cardstock sheet, dated by Keller, “December 2nd 1933.” Keller writes, in full: “It is during periods of peace that nations become civilized. While terror and bloodshed reign in the land can be no process of thought, no education going on, by which alone can a people be prepared for the enjoyment of national liberty.” In fine condition, with a light horizontal bend above signature. An unusually lengthy quotation with thought-provoking content. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
