“QUOTE UNQUOTE”

“The peace of God it is no peace, but strife closed in the sod. Yet let us pray for but one thing — the marvelous peace of God.” — William Alexander Percy

“If we want peace we must work for justice. Justice is the root of peace just as peace is its fruit. Equity demands that the goods of this world be justly distributed; that equal opportunities be provided for all to enjoy the economic and social benefits that the world has to offer; and that we give each person his due. We cannot lull our conscience by giving to others in charity what is in fact due to them in justice. A culture of peace is built on justice.”  —  Cardinal Paul Poupard

“But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!”  —  Amos 5:24
