Each of us must accept total responsibility for the earth’s survival. Ultimately, the future rests upon our commitment as individuals —
As parents, providing a healthy and secure future for their children;
As students, unwilling to accept a future of sickness and war;
As citizens, believing that it is the people who should hold the balance of power in a democracy;
As taxpayers, exhausted by an insane arms race and opposed to the waste of the earth’s resources;
As workers, farmers, professionals, artists, corporate employees, public servants, environmentalists, industrialists, rich and poor, black and white, red and yellow, men and women.
In the face of nuclear technology, concern for human survival surpasses all social, political and economic divisions. As members of the same species, we must work in harmony towards our common goal.
-Dr Helen Caldicott

There are three kinds of people:
1. The WILLS who accomplish everything.
2. The WON’TS who oppose everything.
3. The CAN’TS who fail in everything.
