Quote by Chingiz Aitmatov

“Humanity has no more comprehensive and no more complicated task than that of bringing forth a culture of love for peace as a contrast to the cult of violence and war. There is no area of human existence—from politics to ethics, from primary school to high science, from art to religion—where the human spirit is not confronted with the universal idea of the renunciation of violence.”

Rather, I would wish to point you away from myself and direct you to the God in Whom you will find everything that I could never be, for it was within Him that I became everything that I never was.”
