True peace is not merely the absence of war; it is the presence of justice.
-Jane Addams
True peace is not merely the absence of war; it is the presence of justice.
-Jane Addams
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.
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.
If there is to be peace in the world, there must be peace in the heart.
Avoid popularity if you would have peace.
-Abraham Lincoln
Supporting one’s parents, cherishing spouse and children and a peaceful occupation; this is the greatest blessing.
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.
A peace is of the nature of a conquest; for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser.
-William Shakespeare
If you want to make peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.
-Desmond Tutu
Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.
-Eugene O'Neill
