If there is to be peace in the world,
There must be peace in the nations.
If there is to be peace in the nations,
There must be peace in the cities.
If there is to be peace in the cities,
There must be peace between neighbors.
If there is to be peace between neighbors,
There must be peace in the home.
If there is to be peace in the home,
There must be peace in the heart.
Lao Tzu
Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.
Albert Einstein
What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family."
Mother Teresa
If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work."
Thich Naht Hanh
Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal."
Martin Luther King, Jr
This is the way of peace: overcome evil with good, and falsehood with truth, and hatred with love."
Peace Pilgrim
I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion, and elimination of ignorance, selfishness, and greed."
Dalai Lama
Peace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and all that we are, toward creating a world that supports everyone. But it is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they have and all that they are.
