"'Peace is possible!' [Venerable Maha] Ghosananda insisted... This clarion call would become his personal motto. He was determined, he said, to build an 'army of peace' whose ammunition would be 'bullets of loving kindness'. It was to be 'an army absolutely without guns or partisan politics, an army of reconciliation with so much courage that it turns away from violence, an army dedicated wholly to peace and to the end of suffering.'"

-From "Maha Ghosananda: The Buddha of the Battlefield" by Santidhammo Bhikkhu
