kkdas:

“We often think of peace as the
absence of war, that if powerful
countries would reduce their
weapon arsenals, we could have
peace. But if we look deeply into
the weapons, we see our own
minds- our own prejudices, fears
and ignorance. Even if we
transport all the bombs to the
moon, the roots of war and the
roots of bombs are still there, in
our hearts and minds, and
sooner or later we will make
new bombs. To work for peace is
to uproot war from ourselves
and from the hearts of men and
women. To prepare for war, to
give millions of men and women
the opportunity to practice
killing day and night in their
hearts, is to plant millions of
seeds of violence, anger,
frustration, and fear that will be
passed on for generations to
come. ”
