IS THERE such a thing as a statesman?  Or is the domain of politics just an open field where anyone can pitch his tent and declare: I am a statesman.

It is, at times, strange to see the lack of understanding of this conception or rather—let us not hesitate to say so—this particular science and wisdom which is called statesmanship.
