Peace Quotes.
Indira Gandhi: You can't shake hands with a clenched fist. Croesus:
In peace the sons bury their fathers,
but in war the fathers bury their sons. Agatha Christie: One is left with the horrible
feeling now that war settles nothing;
that to win a war is as disastrous as to lose one. William E. Gladstone : We look forward to the
time when the Power of Love
will replace the Love of Power.
Then will our world
know the blessings of peace. Thomas Jefferson: The care of human
life and happiness,
and not their destruction,
is the first and only
object of good government. Ramona L. Anderson: People spend a lifetime
searching for happiness;
looking for peace.
They chase idle dreams,
addictions, religions,
even other people,
hoping to fill the emptiness
that plagues them.
The irony is the only place
they ever needed to
search was within. Ralph Waldo Emerson: The real and lasting
victories are those of peace,
and not of war. Oscar Romero: Peace is not the product
of terror or fear.
Peace is not the silence
of cemeteries.
Peace is not the silent
result of violent repression.

contribution of all to the good of all.
Peace is dynamism.
Peace is generosity.
It is right and it is duty. Moshe Dayan: If you want to make peace,
you don't talk to your friends.
You talk to your enemies. Martin Luther King, Jr.: True peace is not merely
the absence of tension:
it is the presence of justice. John F. Kennedy: It is an unfortunate
fact that we can secure peace
only by preparing for war. Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love
overcomes the love of power the
world will know peace.
