Wikiquote:Quote of the day/October 13, 2022

 

Prayers offered in times of peace are silent conversations,
Appeals for love, or love's release, in private invocations

But all that is changed now.
Gone like a memory from the day before the fires.
People hungry for the voice of God
Hear lunatics and liars.

Wartime prayers. Wartime prayers
In every language spoken.
For every family scattered and broken.

~ Paul Simon ~
