You know, I used to think that peace isn't brought about by fighting, but by people coming together and agreeing not to fight. That being able to talk it out, finding a way to be able to converse and have a conversation with one another would solve a lot of the world's problems.

If they would much rather cause more pain and suffering rather than trying to find a peaceful solution to conflict.
I won't ask you why you fight; something like that's a very private thing.
