Quotations
Peace
Peace is only a thought away.
-Jill Bolte Taylor
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
-Benjamin Franklin
For him who has completed the journey, for him who is sorrowless, for him who from everything is wholly free, for him who has destroyed all ties, the fever of passion exists not… He is like a pool, unsullied by mud; to such a balanced one, life’s wanderings do not arise. Calm is his mind, calm is his speech, calm is his action, who, rightly knowing, is wholly freed, perfectly peaceful and equipoised.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada"
If an evil man comes and creates a disturbance, you should hold your peace. You must not angrily upbraid his; then he who has come to curse you will merely harm himself.

To be at peace with others you must be at peace with yourself.
-E'yen A. Gardner
Even peace may be purchased at too high a price.

Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.
-Winston S. Churchill
A peace is of the nature of a conquest; for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.

Peace and happiness are powerful weapons against the Egos.
