I want peace; yes, I'd sell the whole world for a farthing, straight off, so long as I was left in peace. Is the world to go to pot, or am I to go without my tea?

Therefore, doing the Stations of the Cross was still more laborious than consoling, and required a sacrifice. It was much the same with all my devotions. They did not come easily or spontaneously, and they very seldom brought with them any strong sensible satisfaction.

My family sat in their pool courtyard," Harah said, "in air bathed by the moisture that arose from the spray of a fountain. There was a tree of portyguls, round and deep in color, near at hand. There was a basket with mish mish and baklawa and mugs of liban—all manner of good things to eat. In our gardens and, in our flocks, there was peace . . . peace in all the land." "Life was full with happiness until the raiders came," Alia said. "Blood ran cold at the scream of friends," Jessica said.... Frank Herbert
The longing for peace is rooted in the hearts of all men. But the striving, which at present has become so insistent, cannot lay claim to such an ambition as leading the way to eternal peace, or solving all disputes among nations. Alva Myrdal
We cannot have peace if we are only concerned with peace. War is not an accident. It is the logical outcome of a certain way of life. If we want to attack war, we have to attack that way of life. A. J. Muste
A. J. Muste quote: "There is no way to peace; peace is the way."
There is no way to peace; peace is the way. A. J. Muste
May God be with me! May Heaven bless this New Year. May it be a year of fruitfulness, of peace and prosperity; may it be a year of peace and unity for all mankind; may the world be freed of cholera. Giacomo Meyerbeer
Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war, it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first. William Glasser
The change began in Somalia, where we discovered that we were involved in an operation where there was no peace, so there was no more a peacekeeping operation because there was no peace. Boutros Boutros-Ghali
Mahatma Gandhi quote: "Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be..."
Each one has to find his peace from within. And peace to be real must be unaffected by outside circumstances. Mahatma Gandhi
Donald Freed quote: "My mother always used to say, 'There is no path to peace...."
My mother always used to say, 'There is no path to peace. Peace is the path.' Donald Freed
Most people go, I wish for world peace. But chaos has a place in balancing out the light and the dark in the world. I don't know if I would wish for world peace. Brendan Fraser
