The poor girl does not know how to have a conversation. Unfortunately, she does know how to speak.

We are not meant to find peace in this world. The spirit of life cannot exist without effort. Destroy the rivalries of man and nations and you will have destroyed all that makes for betterment and progress on Earth.
