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"
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.
He who is too sure in time of peace, will often show himself to be downcast or fearful in time of war.
-Jesus Christ
May peace rule the universe; may peace rule in kingdoms and empires; in states and in the lands of the potentates; in the house of friends and may peace also rule in the house of enemies.
The most disadvantageous peace is better than the most just war.
-Desiderius Erasmus
"Adagia"
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 be upon him who follows the straight Path!
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
-Benjamin Franklin
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.
You cannot find peace by avoiding life.
-Virginia Woolf
To be at peace with others you must be at peace with yourself.
-E'yen A. Gardner
