If you are religious, then remember that this bomb is Man's challenge to God. It's worded quite simply: we have the power to destroy everything that You have created. If you're not religious, then look at it this way: this world of ours is 460,000,000 years old. It could end in an afternoon.
Audre Lorde
The master's tools will never destroy the master's house.

As you look at me and listen to me, please remember the often repeated truth that one prisoner of conscience is one too many.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Absolute peace in our world is an unattainable goal. But it is one towards which we must continue to journey, our eyes fixed on it as a traveller in a desert fixes his eyes on the one guiding star that will lead him to salvation.
