Quotations

"As long as arms, political powers, economic interests, nationalism, hidden or open dictatorships, concealed democracies, peoples in misery, trafficking of the young, and starving children dominate our world, peace is and shall remain an abused word without any meaning and humanity will not be human."

"Love from human to human which has real and profound civil and spiritual meaning, which is capable of capturing and fertilizing pacifism between individuals, groups, ethnicities and religions." (Ara Pacis Initiative on Forgiveness; photo women in culture)
