Peace Quotes

    “Seventy-five percent of our energy around the earth is being poured into war efforts. Are we servants of death and destruction? This 75 percent of energy could be poured into life, into the service of life-and there will be laughter, and there will be greater health, and there will be more wealth, more food. There will be no poverty. There is no need for poverty to exist at all.”

    Osho, The Book of Understanding (page 52)

      “Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows.” ~ Martin Luther King Jr.

        “Be yourself, and let others be themselves.  Do not harm others with your beliefs.  There’s only so much we can know about right and wrong, but as far as I’m able to tell, the genesis of evil lies in forceful ideology.  If we act with mindful compassion over and over again, we can tangentially and unconsciously influence others to do the same.  With such an attitude, one would hope the world would grow more peaceful and intelligent over time.” ~ Unknown, The Daily Zen

          “It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to peace.” ~ Agnes M. Pharo

            “Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures.” ~ John F. Kennedy

              “Indeed, the important question in terms of becoming more peaceful isn’t whether or not you’re going to have negative thoughts – you are – it’s what you choose to do with the ones that you have.” ~ Richard Carlson, Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff

                “The first step in becoming a more peaceful person is to have the humility to admit that, in most cases, you’re creating your own emergencies. Life will usually go on if things don’t go according to plan.” ~ Richard Carlson, Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff

                  “When you have what you want (inner peace), you are less distracted by your wants, needs, desires, and concerns. It’s thus easier to concentrate, focus, achieve your goals, and to give back to others.” ~ Richard Carlson, Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff

                    “The quieter you become, the more you can hear.” ~ Ram Dass

                            Picture Quote Text:

                            “Peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart.” ~ Unknown

                              “I have found that the greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It is the ultimate source of success in life.”~ Dalai Lama

                                You will find that it is necessary to let things go; simply for the reason that they are heavy.

                                  "Patience is not the ability to wait but how you act while you're waiting." ~ Joyce Meyer
