Quotations

"A clear understanding of every culture's pressures, its history and the way its people view themselves and the world is essential to the maintenance of peace. Every conflict has its deepest roots in a people's view of themselves and their neighbors." (National-Louis Univ. website 2007; photo UNESCO)
