Suspicion and doubt lead to animosity and hatred.

In the clashes between ignorance and intelligence, ignorance is generally the aggressor.

Conflicts are never caused in any simple way by identity, culture or economics. Where resources are scarce, or there are strong historical memories of conflict, small events are more likely to inflame passions.

Conflict is very much a state of mind. If you're not in that state of mind, it doesn't bother you.

On the market, all is harmony. But as soon as intervention appears and is established, conflict is created, for each may participate in a scramble to be a net gainer rather than a net loser - to be part of the invading team instead of one of the victims.

You never want conflict. But sometimes conflict is inevitable.

You can educate people on how to preempt their own conflict.

It is certain, in any case, that ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy justice can have.

I don't like conflict.
