Profound Words

“When such conflict appeared on the horizon, there were those among both policy-makers and commentators who were able to talk about it without really measuring the price. Perhaps we have learned something, if only that there is a time to keep silence, a time to let go of the satisfyingly overblown language that is so tempting for human beings when war is in the air.” - Dr Rowan Williams, the Archbishop Of Canterbury, addressing the congregation at a service to commemerate the 179 British Personnel killed in Iraq.
