Dave Matthew on Peace

(Filed under: Politics)

"Yeah, [peace] is a tough sell. But I can't help what I believe. I'm not saying that we should lie down and allow ourselves to be pummeled. But the great people in the world who made the most powerful changes -- very often they are people who talked about peace. Whether it's Martin Luther King or Ghandi or Nelson Mandela or Christ. I mean, what about 'Thou shalt not kill' don't you understand? God said don't. And God's a very powerful tool, especially when missused."

-Dave Matthews, who recently released his solo album, Some Devil. (Source: Spin, November, 2003)
