Never continue in a job you don't enjoy. If you're happy in what you're doing, you'll like yourself, you'll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined.

Compassion is sometimes the fatal capacity for feeling what it is like to live inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too.

If there is to be any peace it will come through being, not having.

Courageous people do not fear forgiving, for the sake of peace.

Let love flow so that it cleanses the world. Then man can live in peace, instead of the state of turmoil he has created through his past ways of life, with all those material interests and earthly ambitions.

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love.

Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided but they are far better than certain kinds of peace.

There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.

If there is not the war, you don't get the great general if there is not a great occasion, you don't get a great statesman if Lincoln had lived in a time of peace, no one would have known his name.

You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once.
