I was a Catholic youth minister for eight years... I'm not Catholic anymore. The church is too misogynistic.

When I was growing up, it was 'Communists'. Now it's 'Terrorists'. So you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of, so the war machine can build more bombs, guns, and bullets and everything.

I never go anywhere and encourage people to get married to someone of the same gender or to have abortions - the issue never comes up.

I am not a politician or a military strategist. I am just a citizen voicing my opinions.

Soviet expansionism in Europe, the battle for control of China, and the 1950 invasion of South Korea would shatter once-euphoric dreams of post-war cooperation with the Kremlin.

I do know that you have to choose between the logic of reconciliation and the logic of justice. Pure justice leads to new civil war. I prefer the negotiable revolution.

I don't think there's anything more important than making peace before it's too late. And it almost always falls to the child to try to move toward the parent.

I know of no greater work for humanity than in the cause of peace, which can only be achieved by the earnest efforts of nations and peoples.
