"On my knees I beg you to turn away from the paths of violence.
. . .I say to you, with all the love I have for you, with all the trust I have in young people: do not listen to voices which
speak the language of hatred, revenge, retaliation. Do not follow any leaders who train you in the way of inflicting death.
. . .Give yourself to the service of life, not the work of death. Violence is the enemy of justice. Only peace can lead the
way to true justice." - Pope John Paul II, September 29, 1979
