QUOTES

I have met with political leaders, legislators, and diplomats, seeking the next steps to press in reducing and eliminating the nuclear threat in this century. I have participated in public coalitions developing programmes for action to combat the global rash of small arms. All are trying and making a difference.

We still have a long distance to go in order to achieve the lasting peace we inherently owe each other as inhabitants of this planet.

"We must unite to make nuclear weapons a horror of the past."

"Wherever arms flow, violence follows. Bullets replace ballots as the solution to political disputes".

"Human Rights for everyone is the necessary foundation upon which all of us may build a world where everybody may live in peace and serenity and plenty."
