You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
-Kahlil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
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"
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.
Avoid popularity if you would have peace.
-Abraham Lincoln
True peace is not merely the absence of war; it is the presence of justice.
-Jane Addams
It is our duty to ensure we have a peace worth fighting for.
-Chris Bradford
"The Way of the Dragon"
This is peace, this is excellent, namely the calm of all impulses, the casting out of all “basis”, the extinction of craving, dispassion, stopping-nirvana.
Hopefully one day wars will only be fought in movies and may the best producer win.
-Stanley Victor Paskavich
"Return to Stantasyland"
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.
