If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.

How true Cherie. Maybe peace be the norm one day.
It would be nice to think so
I’m sure that we have been teaching children peace for years. Who would teach them otherwise?
I believe they get all the wrong ideas from ‘that box in the corner’.
Ah! yes the idiots lantern has a lot to answer for and so do computer games.
Trouble is – that’s precisely what the forces of evil have done in our schools – taken them over and indoctrinated the children into unsustainable utopiae based on false premises.
Of course the utopia you talk of is unsustainable because people are corruptible, selfish and greedy.
What a wonderful quote, Cherie – and a most thought-provoking take on the designated blogblast. I hadn’t encountered those words of Gandhi’s before, so many thanks to you.
I thought they were rather thought provoking
