If you want to make peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.
-Desmond Tutu
Quotations
Peace
Peace is a conscious choice.
-John Denver
Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity.
-George Carlin
Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances.
-Mahatma Gandhi
World peace can blossom throughout the length and breadth of the world only when the world-peace-dreamers, world-peace-lovers and world-peace-servers desperately, sleeplessly and breathlessly long for the full manifestation of peace here on earth.
-Sri Chinmoy "Sri Chinmoy"
He who is too sure in time of peace, will often show himself to be downcast or fearful in time of war.
-Jesus Christ
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"
One man can not wage a war alone. Therefore if humanity stops agreeing to go to war; there will be only peace.
-Richard Kevin Hartley
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
To be at peace with others you must be at peace with yourself.
-E'yen A. Gardner
