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
Quotations
Peace
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.
-Swami Sivananda "Swami Sivananda"
Peace is only a thought away.
-Jill Bolte Taylor
Obsessed by a fairy tale, we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.
-Eugene O'Neill
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"
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.
-Kahlil Gibran "Kahlil Gibran"
It is my conviction that there is no way to peace - peace is the way.
-Thích Nhất Hạnh
"The Art of Power"
Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind.
-William Collins
It is our duty to ensure we have a peace worth fighting for.
-Chris Bradford
"The Way of the Dragon"
Be at peace with yourself. If you are not at peace with yourself, you are at peace with nothing.
-Ron. W. Rathbun "Ron. W. Rathbun"
