giving, even to the point of self-sacrifice.

good of peace there must be a clear and conscious acknowledgment that
violence is an unacceptable evil and that it never solves problems.

lie, for it goes against the truth of our faith, the truth of our humanity.
Violence destroys what it claims to defend: the dignity, the life, the
freedom of human beings.

- Each person, in
some way, is called to work for the common good, constantly looking
out for the good of others as if it were his own.

challenge of peace. As a supreme good and the condition for attaining
many other essential goods, peace is the dream of every generation.
Pope

power must be countered with reason, force with dialogue, pointed weapons
with outstretched hands, evil with good.
