It recommends that if we want to make peace, we should want to talk to those we disagree with, even if they are our opponents. This is since it is just through discussion and understanding that we can pertain to a mutual agreement and discover a way to exist together peacefully.

We need to be willing to engage with our enemies and attempt to understand their viewpoint in order to find a method to move on. This quote is a pointer that peace is not something that can be achieved through avoidance or silence, but rather through open and honest discussion.
