war, requires idealism and self-sacrifice and a righteous
and dynamic faith.

Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks.

"Our
principle is, and our practices have always been,
to seek peace, and ensue it, and to follow after
righteousness and the knowledge of God, seeking
the good and welfare, and doing that which tends
to the peace of all...All bloody principles and
practices we do utterly deny, with all outward wars,
and strife, and fightings with outward weapons,
for any end, or under any pretence whatsoever..."
-- George Fox
