“Peace is not won by those who fiercely guard their differences, but by those who with open minds and hearts seek out connections.”

“The real differences around the world today are not between Jews and Arabs; Protestants and Catholics; Muslims, Croats, and Serbs. The real differences are between those who embrace peace and those who would destroy it. Between those who look to the future and those who cling to the past. Between those who open their arms and those who are determined to clench their fists.”

“Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.”

“To preserve openness of heart and calmness of mind, nurture these attitudes:Kindness to those who are happyCompassion for those who are less fortunateHonor for those who embody noble qualitiesEquanimity to those whose actions oppose your values”

“The words of revelation can only be understood by those who are open-minded and pure-hearted.”

“No soul that seriously and constantly desires joy will ever miss it. Those who seek find. To those who knock it is opened.”
