GIST: In exactly 10 words, paraphrase this quote

by de Klerk: O"Peace does not fare well where poverty and

deprivation reign. It does not flourish where there is ignorance and a lack of education and information....Peace is gravely threatened by inter-group fear and envy and by the unleashing of unrealistic expectations. Racial, class and religious intolerance and prejudice are its (peace) mortal enemies."

O--F.W. de Klerk
