“Let us be wary of mass solutions, let us be wary of statistics. We must love our neighbors as ourselves. To be sure, helping persons individually naturally implies that one cannot help them all, at least not directly.”
“There is perhaps no surer road to peace than the one that starts from little islands and oases of genuine kindness, island and oases constantly growing in number and being continually joined together until eventually they ring the world.”
“The union between two people who rediscover their dignity while working together to save a third, rids us of many of the barriers of prejudices, narrow-mindedness, and discrimination that poison human love and sap its strength. We must now have faith in the power of love and set it to work.”
(Fr. Dominique Pire, OP - 1958 Nobel Peace Laureate)
