Quotations
Peace
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
Peace is a conscious choice.
-John Denver
It is my conviction that there is no way to peace - peace is the way.
-Thích Nhất Hạnh
"The Art of Power"
The most disadvantageous peace is better than the most just war.
-Desiderius Erasmus
"Adagia"
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"
Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.
-Eugene O'Neill
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
-Gautama Buddha
Happy are those who work for peace: God will call them his children!
-Jesus Christ
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
-Kahlil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
