I care about your happiness just as you care about mine. I could not be at peace if you were not.
-Khalil Gibran
Quotations
Peace
Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.
-Ronald Reagan
Peace begins when expectation ends.
-Sri Chinmoy
"Perfection and Transcendence"
Peace is a conscious choice.
-John Denver
He who is in perfect peace suspects no man. But he who is discontented and disturbed is agitated by various suspicions; he neither has rest himself, nor does he permit others to rest.
-Jesus Christ
True peace is not merely the absence of war; it is the presence of justice.
-Jane Addams
I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.
-Albert Einstein
Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.
-Pope John Paul II
Neither do we have to make the sun or moon rise nor manage gravitation. We do
not even have to convert the food that we eat into blood. All that we have to do
is, put our own life on the path of peace, bliss and success. Isn't it amusing that
we, who claim ourselves to be so intelligent, cannot do even this bit of work?
-Deep Trivedi
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"
