“Who said it? – probably Confucius – “I can’t beat a sculpture from a stone with a sledgehammer; I can’t free the soul of man by violence.” Peace was here, peace was now. Peace promised in any other time or place was a lie.”

“World peace must develop from inner peace. Peace is not just mere absence of violence. Peace is, I think, the manifestation of human compassion.”

“I prefer the Peace of Nicias. Time’s too precious to waste it with war and conflict. (Arik)But the peace was fraught with skirmishes and ultimately broken. (Geary)Yes, and doesn’t it piss you off that there are always assholes who just can’t let other people live in peace. Really, some people should get a life. (Arik)”

“I watched you while you were sleeping and you looked completely at peace. I wish I could feel that. I wish I could close my eyes and feel at peace. But I can’t. I can’t feel anything if I’m notwith you, and even then all I can do is want something that I don’t think I can ever have, at least not now. So I left this, and my peace, with you. Stark.”

“The peace of God is with them whose mind and soul are in harmony, who are free from desire and wrath, who know their own soul.”

“Man up before I beat you with my peace prize!"-Switzerland”
