We have too many men of science, too few men of God. We have grasped the mystery of the atom, and rejected the Sermon on the Mount. The world has achieved briliance without wisdom, power without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical midgets. We know more about war than we know of peace, more about killing than we know of living.

Omar Bradley (1893-1981) American general
Armistice Day address, Boston (11 Nov 1948)

    Absolutely true. If have more people in power with the same perspective, the world would be a better place for everyone.
