“Until the
philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and
permanently discredited and abandoned, everywhere is war and until there are no
longer first-class and second-class citizens of any nation, until the colour of
a man's skin is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes. And until
the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race,
there is war. And until that day, the dream of lasting peace, world
citizenship, rule of international morality, will remain but a fleeting
illusion to be pursued, but never attained... now everywhere is war.”
~Emperor Haile Selassie
