Excerpt from The Problem of Population

That in many cases an increasing population can provide for itself an increased volume of subsistence ismejmen have hands and brains as well as mouths. But ultimately the capacity of man to produce main tenance for himself depends on the plentifulness of the materials that the earth supplies, and when these begin to grow scarce in any country the inhabitants of that country must seek new territory or new markets. In so doing they often cross the purpose of other nations, and the rivalry ends in war.
