To end wars

"That was just the kind of a position that attracted me, that appealed to my mind at the time. It seemed to cut across all complexities by its sweeping and uncompromising simplicity. All war was simply unjust, and that was that. The thing to do was to fold your arms and refuse to fight. If everybody did that, there would be no more wars."
the Seven Storey Mountain, Thomas Merton
