Nothing is final in history. It always moves on. Peace must be built again and again.
-Thorbjørn Jagland
Quotations
Peace
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.
-Virchand Gandhi "Virchand Gandhi"
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
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"
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"
Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.
-Ronald Reagan
When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.
-Peace Pilgrim
Peace is a conscious choice.
-John Denver
Declare it. Just the same way we declare war. That is how we will have peace... we just need to declare it.
-John Lennon
