Peace is not possible where hate, jealousy and striving for power determine the existence of people. Peace remains illusion, utopia and mere hope, unless the people themselves work on it. There is no order without people who keep the well-being and fortune of others in mind and think not only of themselves. Ruins and debris are the tracks, which hatred has engraved into the face of the earth. Love conquers death because it has overcome hatred.
Love alone bestows life and peace.
