Without white South Africa realizing what it had done - and on the basis of that realization having the courage to ask for forgiveness - there can really be no significant movement.

In South Africa, we could not have achieved our freedom and just peace without the help of people around the world, who through the use of non-violent means, such as boycotts and divestment, encouraged their governments and other corporate actors to reverse decades-long support for the Apartheid regime.

War is regarded as nothing but the continuation of state policy with other means.

There was never a good war, or a bad peace.

Even a moderniser like Alexander II - who emancipated the serfs in 1861 - had no intention of devolving real power.

Nothing the European mind ever devised was meant to do anything but to facilitate the European's control over the world.

There is no instance of a nation benefitting from prolonged warfare.
