This Love - Good Will

Song: Good Will Artist: This Love Album: Art of War Released: Aug 02, 2011 This track contains excerpts taken from a speech John F. Kennedy gave on June 10, 1963 at the American University in Washington, D.C. I realize that the pursuit of peace is not as dramatic as the pursuit of war and frequently the words of the pursuer fall on deaf ears. But we have no more urgent task. Too many of us think it is impossible. Too many think it unreal. But that is a dangerous, defeatist belief. It leads to the conclusion that war is inevitable, that mankind is doomed, that we are gripped by forces we cannot control. All we have built, all we have worked for, would be destroyed in the first 24 hours. I am not referring to the absolute, infinite concept of universal peace and good will of which some fantasies and fanatics dream. I do not deny the values of hopes and dreams but we merely invite discouragement and incredulity by making that our only and immediate goal. This generation has already had enough, of war and hate. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal.
