Peace Quotes
The first duty of love is to listen.
Paul Tillich
“I think I’ve discovered the secret of life – you just hang around until you get used to it.”
Charles Schultz
"Peace is not something you wish for; it’s something you make, something you do, something you are, and something you give away."
Robert Fulghum
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
African proverb
“We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
Viktor Frankl
"Be kind for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
Plato
“The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."
Howard Zinn
Peace may sound simple – one beautiful word –but it requires everything we have, every quality, every strength, every dream, every high ideal.
Yehudi Menuhin
“Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.”
Hans Christian Anderson
Don’t ever forget that you are a citizen of this world, and there are things you can do to lift the human spirit, things that are easy, things that are free, things that you can do every day. Civility – Respect – Kindness-Character
Aaron Sorkin

  • Mother Teresa on Peace


    “If we do not have peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” We tend to think that we belong to our family and our community, maybe our country. We need to think of ourselves as belonging to all humanity. If we all belong to each other, we would never [...]
