“I would say that I’m a nonviolent soldier. In place of weapons of violence, you have to use your mind, your heart, your sense of humor, every faculty available to you…because no one has the right to take the life of another human being.”
- Joan Baez

Joan has said some remarkable things over the course of her career. This quote is one of them. Do you think we’ll ever take this line of thought seriously? I sure hope so – like it or not, we live in a global community that is impacted daily by violence, intolerance, ignorance and hatred. Each of us need to take responsibility for our actions and for every word we speak. Thank you for posting this quote.
