Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.

Quotations
Peace
Peace comes within the souls of men, when they realise their oneness with the universe, when they realise it is really everywhere… it is within each one of us.
-Black Elk "Black Elk"
You can blow the world to pieces, but you can't blow the world to peace.
-Dennis Kucinich
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"
Peace be upon him who follows the straight Path!
-Baha’u’llah "Baha’u’llah"
The greatest comforts and lasting peace are obtained, when one eradicates selfishness from within.
-A Spiritual Leader "Bani of Guru Gobind Singh"
This is peace, this is excellent, namely the calm of all impulses, the casting out of all “basis”, the extinction of craving, dispassion, stopping-nirvana.
-Scriptures " Anguttara Nikaya"
Success, peace and prosperity will always remain elusive as long as there is discord but where there is unity, perfect harmony prevails there and nobody would dare to attack such a place.
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"
Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind.
-William Collins
