What is the most profitable? Fellowship with the good. What is the worst thing in the world? The society of evil men. What is the greatest loss? Failure in one?s duty. Where is the greatest peace? In truth and righteousness. Who is the hero? The man who subdues his senses. Who is the best beloved? The faithful wife. What is wealth? Knowledge. What is the most perfect happiness? Staying at home.
– Bhartrihari
What we need is Star Peace and not Star Wars.
– Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev
What you care about is what makes who you are! If you care about peace, this makes you a man!
– Mehmet Murat ildan
Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will finally know peace.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will know peace.
When you see your fellow religious man, don’t call him brother; but when you see a man of honour, a man of goodness, a man of peace, a man of ethics, now you can call him as your brother!
Where the soul is full of peace and joy, outward surrounding and circumstances are of comparatively little account.

Yes, we love peace, but we are not willing to take wounds for it, as we are for war.
– John Andrew Holmes
You can not gain peace by avoiding life.
– Virginia Woolf

You have a wonderful child. Then, when he's 13, gremlins carry him away and leave in his place a stranger who gives you not a moment's peace.
– Jill Eikenberry
Your life and my life flow into each other as wave flows into wave, and unless there is peace and joy and freedom for you, there can be no real peace or joy or freedom for me. To see reality--not as we expect it to be but as it is--is to see that unless we live for each other and in and through each other, we do not really live very satisfactorily that there can really be life only where there really is, in just this sense, love.
– Frederick Buechner
