Excerpt from the book ' 39 Poland: operation Fall Weiss
"Peace is a precious thing required. Our generation, gored in wars, deserve peace surely. But peace, like almost all things of this world, is priced high but measurable. We, in P
oland, we do not know the concept of peace at any price. There is only one thing in the life of people, Nations and countries that is priceless. This thing is the honor."
Józef Beck. Minister issues outside of Poland, 1939.
