Quotations
Peace
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
That which gives pleasure to one man gives pain to another. That sage who identifies himself with the imperishable Self and stands as a spectator of the mental modifications enjoys supreme peace and infinite bliss.
-Swami Sivananda "Swami Sivananda"
Peace is only a thought away.
-Jill Bolte Taylor
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 impossible, war improbable.
-Rayman Aron
Peace be upon him who follows the straight Path!
-Baha’u’llah "Baha’u’llah"
I care about your happiness just as you care about mine. I could not be at peace if you were not.
-Khalil Gibran
Peace - that was the other name for home.
-Kathleen Norris
Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.
-Eugene O'Neill
