Our motto should be: let us make peace so that we can concentrate on the really important work that needs to be done. That is, alleviating the plight of the poor and the defenceless, for as long as most of humanity feels the pain of poverty we all remain prisoners.

All of us must take responsibility for the upliftment of our conditions, prepared to give our best to the benefit of all
