"There are two ways of spreading
the light: to be the candle or the
mirror that reflects it."
-EDITH WHARTON

"I think that people want peace
so much that one of these days
government had better get out
of the way and let them have it."
-DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER

"The only devils in this world
are those running around in
our own hearts, and that is where
all our battles should be fought."
-MOHANDAS (MAHATMA) GANDHI


"And hast thou slain the
Jabberwock? Come to my
arms, my beamisn boy!
O frabjous day Calloh!
Callay!" He chortled in his joy.
LEWIS CARROLL (Through the
Looking Glass)
"Man must evolve for all human
conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation
of such a method is love."
-MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
"Come mothers and fathers throughout
the land. And don't criticize what you
can't understand. Your sons and your
daughters are beyond your command.
Your old world is rapidly aging. Please
get out of the new one if you can't lend
a hand. For the times they are a changin'."
-BOB DYLAN
   

"If we are to reach real peace in
this world and if we are to carry
on a real war against war, we
shall have to begin with children;
and if they will grow up in their
natural innocence, we won't have
to struggle; we won't have to
pass fruitless idle resolutions,
but we shall go from love to love
and peace to peace, until at last
all the corners of the world are
covered with that peace and love
for which consciously or
unconsciously the whole world
is hungering."
-MOHANDAS (MAHATMA) GANDHI

"The earth is a depot, where
wingless angels pass the time
waiting for the long ride home.
Seeing a small boy smiling in the
corner I said, "You must be anxious
to go home." "I am home," he
replied, "I just come here to play,
the games."
-OLIVER MAKIN

"The individual isn't quite an individual, he
is a branch of a plant. Jesus uses
this image when he says, "I am the
vine and you are the branches."
-JOSEPH CAMPBELL

"As we are part of the land, you too are
part of the land. The earth is precious
to us. It is also precious to you. One thing
we know; there is only one God. No man,
be he Red Man or White Man, can be apart.
We are brothers after all."
-CHIEF SEATTLE
DUWAMISH TRIBE

 

"We no longer think we are
always right. We have now
decided, firmly and un-
equivocally, to base our
policy on the principle of
freedom of choice."
-MIKHAIL GORBACHEV
