"Even more than outside, the causes of war within us.'m In passions such as desire, fear, insecurity, greed, pride, vanity. Gradually we get rid of it, we must change of attitude.
begin to take decisions that affect us and affecting others on the basis of morality more and less interest. We do more than what is right instead of what suits us. We educate children to be honest, smart. Resume certain traditions of fairness , reclaiming our language, in which the word "God " has now become a kind of obscenity, and go back to say "do love" and not "sex" . In the long run, this makes a big difference.
It's time to come out , it's time to commitment to the values \u200b\u200byou believe. A civilization is strengthened by its moral resolution much more than with new weapons. Above all we must stop
, take time to reflect , to remain silent. Often we feel distressed the life we \u200b\u200blead, as the man who flees in terror from his shadow and the echoes of his footsteps. More runs, more see his shadow keep up, more runs, the more the sound of his footsteps is strong and the crowd , until stops and sits in the shade of a tree.
We do the same.
viewed from the perspective of the future, yet the days when you can do something. Let's do it. Sometimes on our own, sometimes all together. This is a good opportunity.
The road is long and often still to be invented. But we prefer to dell'abbrutimento that lies before us? Or that, soon, our extinction?
So, enjoy your trip! Both inside and outside. "
(Tiziano Terzani, Letters against the war - 2001)
