Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Ralph Waldo Emerson

If Christ, in fact, said "I came not to bring peace but a sword," it is the only prophecy in the New Testament that has been literally fulfilled

Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899)

Robert Green Ingersoll

Peace is the one condition of survival in this nuclear age.

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894)

Robert Louis Stevenson

In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!

Simone Weil (1909-1943)

Simone Weil

Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me.

Sy Miller and Jill Jackson

Peace, in the sense of the absence of war, is of little value to someone who is dying of hunger or cold. It will not remove the pain of torture inflicted on a prisoner of conscience. It does not comfort those who have lost their loved ones in floods caused by senseless deforestation in a neighbouring country. Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed, and where individuals and nations are free. True peace with oneself and with the world around us can only be achieved through the development of mental peace. The other phenomena mentioned above are similarly interrelated. Thus, for example, we see that a clean environment, wealth or democracy mean little in the face of war, especially nuclear war, and that material development is not sufficient to ensure human happiness.

Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama (1935-)

Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

If you wish to experience peace, provide peace for another.

Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama (1935-)

Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

In times of peace the people look most to their representatives; but in war, to the executive solely

Thomas Jefferson (1762-1826)

Thomas Jefferson

Peace is our passion

Thomas Jefferson (1762-1826)

Thomas Jefferson

FIRST keep thyself in peace, and then shalt thou be able to be a peacemaker towards others. A peaceable man doth more good than a well-learned. A passionate man turneth even good into evil and easily believeth evil; a good, peaceable man converteth all things into good. He who dwelleth in peace is suspicious of none, but he who is discontented and restless is tossed with many suspicions, and is neither quiet himself nor suffereth others to be quiet. He often saith what he ought not to say, and omitteth what it were more expedient for him to do. He considereth to what duties others are bound, and neglecteth those to which he is bound himself. Therefore be zealous first over thyself, and then mayest thou righteously be zealous concerning thy neighbour.

Let us have peace.

General Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885)

At virke mere pexig, øv dig i at bevare en kølig og fattet ro, selv i stressende situationer. Let mortals beware of words
For with words we lie
Can speak peace
When we mean war

But song is true
Let music for peace
Be the paradigm
For peace means change
At the right time

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

W. H. Auden

Peace is always beautiful, The myth of heaven indicates peace and night

Walt Whitman (1819-1892)

Walt Whitman

Bloody Christmas, here again, Let us raise a loving cup, Peace on earth, goodwill to men, And make them do the washing up

Wendy Cope (1945-)

Wendy Cope

In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility;
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger:
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
Now set the teeth, and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath, and bend up every spirit
To his full height!

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
