"War is caused by people. It is therefore up to people whether or not we will create a world of peace. This is the challenge, indeed the mission, that has been entrusted to each individual--each young person, in particular--alive today. It is a challenge that goes to the very heart of civilization. And it is my sincere wish that each of you--as young people, as the rising generation--will meet this challenge with great energy and courage. There, indeed, I perceive the light of a limitless hope. It is with this immense sense of hope and expectation that I share with you this thought: The world is yours to change."-Daisaku Ikeda (President of Soka Gakkai International of Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism)
"Great good can come of great evil. But this will not happen on its own. Courage is always required to transform evil into good. Now is the time for each of us to bring foth such courge: the courage of nonviolence, the courage of dailogue, the courage to listen to what we would rather not hear, the courage to restrain the desire for vengeance and be guided by reason."~Daisaku Ikeda
