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
Peace be upon him who follows the straight Path!
-Baha’u’llah "Baha’u’llah"
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"
Common people pray for rain, healthy children and a summer that never ends. It is no matter to them if the high lords play their game of thrones, so long as they are left in peace.
-George R. R. Martin “GRRM” "George. R. Marti"
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
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"
Nothing is final in history. It always moves on. Peace must be built again and again.
-Thorbjørn Jagland
Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind.

A people free to choose will always choose peace.
-Ronald Reagan
