“We did not lose provinces. We were partitioned...We cannot surrender one third of our race for all eternity. This we cannot accept as justice...If someone has buttoned his vest wrong, he can only correct his dress if he unbuttons it and then buttons it correctly. To build a permanent peace on these borders is impossible. What can only be built on these borders is a prison, in which we are the guarded and the victors the guards...what we need is new borders”
