她的国家从未积极进取，从未拥护暴力，从未在别人的争吵中脱颖而出。她想知道人们是否知道某人以自己的名义丢下炸弹或闯入自己的家中并将他们带走某个地方，他们会如何入睡。他们为什么这样做？为什么当其他人与您自己一样时，为什么有必要杀死和破坏其他人 - 谁想和家人住在一起，早上去上班，有足够的时间在一天的结束时吃？这并不是要问世界的太多，即使对于许多世界来说，即使是一个小的要求也无法解决。
(Her country had never been aggressive, had never espoused violence, had never taken sides in the squabbles of others. She wondered how people could sleep if they knew that somebody, in their name, was dropping bombs on other people or breaking into their homes and taking them away somewhere. Why did they do it? Why was it necessary to kill and maim other people when the other people would be just the same as yourself--people who wanted to live with their families and go to work in the morning and have enough to eat a the end of the day? That was not much to ask of the world, even if for many the world could not grant even that small request.)
