Hello,

Is it possible to produce in PDF the following passage with matching new-lines?

You can force a newline in LaTeX putting '\\' at the end of the line(as the last chars on the line).

You can try this:
    #+NAME: page-56-57
    #+BEGIN_SRC latex :export:
      \begin{quotation}
      war. The longer a war lasts, the more things tend to depend on acci-\\
      dents. Neither you nor we can see into them: we have to abide their\\
      outcome in the dark. And when people are entering upon a war they\\
      do things the wrong way round. Action comes first, and it is only\\
      when they have already suffered that they begin to think. We, how-\\
      ever, are still far removed from such a mistaken attitude; so, to the\\
      best of our belief, are you. And so we urge you, now, while we are\\
      both still free to make sensible decisions, do not break the peace,\\
      do not go back upon your oaths; instead let us settle our differences\\
      by arbitration, as is laid down in the treaty. If you will not do so, we\\
      shall have as our witnesses the gods who heard our oaths. You will\\
      have begun the war, and we shall attempt to meet you in any and\\
      every field of action that you may choose.\\
      \end{quotation}
    #+END_SRC

Cheers,

LEslie
