The Last Thought (L’Ultimo Pensiero)

Flowering Garden
One man a million men
No death is as useless as dying in a war

In 1900 a lot of Italians immigrated to America, dreaming of Life
A song from that period says:
Mother give me 100 lire because I want to go to America.
This Helmet was found in the woods in the Mountain of Piemonte
It is possible that the soldier who wore it did not have the 100 lire.

Each man is the son of the Earth and need the same things:
air, water, bread shelter and love.
Each war of any kind, under any flag, is a war between brothers.
This is a simple thought, as simple as hunger, thirst, cold and loneliness.

My heart is in mourning crying for all my brothers
