“I refuse to accept the cynical notion that nation after nation must spiral down a
militaristic stairway into the hell of thermonuclear destruction… I believe that even amid
today’s mortar bursts and whining bullets, there is still hope for a brighter tomorrow. I
believe that wounded justice, lying prostrate on the blood-flowing streets of our nations,
can be lifted from this dust of shame and reign supreme amongst the children of men. I
have the audacity to believe that people everywhere can have three meals a day for their
bodies, education, and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their
spirits.”
