Armies cannot stop an idea whose time has come.
"War Is a Racket" U.S. Marine Major General Smedley D. Butler
"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy.

Hate cannot drive our hate: only love can do that." Martin Luther King

"The worst of all attitudes is indifference." Stéphane Hessel,
author of, Indignez vous! (Get Indignant)
…to overcome the people's fear and habit of obedience, a necessary prerequisite to destroy the dictatorship. FROM DICTATORSHIP TO DEMOCRACY A Conceptual Framework for Liberation, by Gene Sharp
"The time for peace is always now"
