Underneath A Sky Of Red
“Peace is the wool pulled over our eyes so we can all work towards our ideals of prosperity and progress. The truth is there has always been war, even during times of prosperity and progress. There has always been war… (We) just refuse to look because then we feel guilty about buying our Nike shoes and Ikea sofas while children lose their lives to mines and artillery fire. I thank the body for giving me the Prize, but the fact that I won says everything: these days, taking my finger off the nuclear button if only for a week, can be considered an act of peace. Years down the road, it will be someone else’s finger, but the same damned button. There can be no peace until we remove the button until we dismantle the triggers until we melt down the swords. Until we agree collectively that our species has no need for bullets and bombs.” —President Oleg Kerzhakov of Russia Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, 15th October 2033
