Quotations

“Because of genetic inclinations that are as deeply rooted as the bonding-for-aggression inclinations of men, most women would prefer to make or keep the peace, the sooner the better.” (Women, Power, and the Biology of Peace, 2003, p. 45)

“If women around the world in the twenty-first century would get their act together they could, partnered with men of like mind, shift the direction of world history to create a future without war.” (A Future Without War, 2006, p. 53; photo afww.wordpress.com)
