Quotations

American peace activist Rachel Corrie, crushed to death in Gaza in 2003 by an IDF bulldozer destroying sections of Rafah city, wrote in her diary:

“I just want to write to my mom and tell her that I’m witnessing this chronic, insidious genocide and I’m really scared, and questioning my fundamental belief in the goodness of human nature.”

Pope St John Paul II wrote in Love and Responsibility, “A person’s rightful due is to be treated as an object of love, not as an object for use."

"I wasted time, and now doth time waste me." Richard II, Act V
