QUOTES

“People who recognise that others have something to share must make themselves available too.

With 40 odd wars going on as we are talking, we have to believe in peace. Otherwise I don’t want to live.

"We have to sit down, have a meal together, pray together and then actually talk together. Then we realize that, yes, although we have some differences they are not impassable differences."

Ma muaka kite a muri
Ma muri ka ora a mua
(Those who lead give sight to those who follow
Those who follow give life to those who lead)

In our innermost Spirit - we nourish the gentleness
and understanding of Peace.
Those around us feel a gentle breeze
whispering as if rustling leaves -
Peace comes not from contemplation-
but action!

I guess you could say that we indigenous peoples are on the verge of turning it all upside down."
