A MANIFESTO OF PEACE

THE PRICE OF PEACE
We cannot have anything in this world without
paying for it. Everything has its price and this is
particularly true of peace. If we want peace, we
should be ready to pay for it or stand deprived
of it. What is the price of peace? It is simply
tolerance. We live in a world of differences, and
these differences cannot be eliminated.
Therefore, we have only two options before us:
adopting the policy of either tolerance or
intolerance. While the latter leads to violence,
the former ensures peace. Where there is
tolerance there is peace, and where there is
intolerance, there is war and violence. This is
the only universal formula of tolerance for
peace, and this same formula may be
successfully applied to one’s family life and to
social life, as well as at the international level.
Peace requires us to foster a culture of
tolerance, for intolerance can lead only to war.
