“Can you honestly proclaim that the world is not primitive! Can you let your six-year-old go to the library a few blocks away from your apartment on her own, without worrying about her safe return! Look deep within yourself, then answer, not to me, but to yourself. If you feel the slightest bit of worry on this matter, then I'm afraid, our world is not yet made unprimitive. So, what can we do about it? Do we simply accept it as our fate and live in fear every day of our life, or do we stand up and act, so that, even if we do not have a safe and civilized world to live in, at least our children or perhaps their children will!”
