Quotes!

We may never stop war, and it isn't likely that we will, actually.  But what we're doing as we try to stop war externally, what we're trying to do is stop it ourselves.  That's where war has to end.  And until we can control our own violence,  our own anger, our own hostility, our own meanness, our own greed.

      - Alice Walker
