All youth are equal in meaning, importance, value, and worth without exception.

It is all youth destiny to live a long and healthy life

Survival is the "Name Of the Game" for youth.

All violence by youth is essential self- destructive

Most hurt themselves rather than get hurt by others.

The best team is an equal youth/adult team. That is what the presentation is.

Most youth are peaceful; therefore, we say to youth, “Don't Change.” Youth are one hundred percent innocent and perfect just the way they are

Tomorrow is another day. One day can and often does make all the difference.

All "wars" are "Youth vs. Youth Wars"

We are fighting to end the "War Against Youth" with all forms of violence and all youth
