"What kind of peace do I mean and what kind of a peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, and the kind that enables men and nations to grow, and to hope, and build a better life for their children—not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women, not merely peace in our time but peace in all time."

Jack sometimes relays messages from the late Benazir Bhutto.

"Mrs. Bhutto says Americans are not at peace with themselves. Only when they can make peace within themselves will they be free of the virulent negativity which runs though the nation now."
