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.
Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.
-Ronald Reagan
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
Even peace may be purchased at too high a price.
-Benjamin Franklin
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.
Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.
-Winston S. Churchill
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.
The greatest comforts and lasting peace are obtained, when one eradicates selfishness from within.
He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees.
-Benjamin Franklin
He who is too sure in time of peace, will often show himself to be downcast or fearful in time of war.
-Jesus Christ
