“I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made; Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee, And live alone in the bee-loud glade. And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet's wings.” MadePeaceMorningWingsNineAriseEveningLoudHoneyBeesMidnightCricketVeilsClayPurpleDroppingBeansNoonCabinsHivesHoney Bee Author:William Butler Yeats

“One day, a new ideal will arise, and there will be an end to all wars. I die convinced of this.

“We have to make the first move ourselves rather than expecting it to come from the phenomenal world or from other people. If we are meditating at home and we happen to live in the middle of the High Street, we cannot stop the traffic just because we want peace and quiet. But we can stop ourselves, we can accept the noise. The noise also contains silence. We must put ourselves into it and expect nothing from outside, just as Buddha did. And we must accept whatever situation arises.” PeopleIfsWorldWantFirstsHomeHappensMovingPeaceSilenceSituationAcceptingStreetsMiddleQuietRoseAriseNoiseExpectingTrafficPhenomenalMeditatingExpect NothingPeace And Quiet Author:Chogyam Trungpa
“A desire arises in the mind. It is satisfied immediately another comes. In the interval which separates two desires a perfect calm reigns in the mind. It is at this moment freed from all thought, love or hate. Complete peace equally reigns between two mental waves.” LoveMindTwoMomentsDesireHatePeacePerfectCalmWaveSatisfiedAriseBuddhistReignIntervalsLove Or Hate Author:Sivananda
“Condemning class struggle does not mean condemning every possible form of social conflict. Such conflicts inevitably arise and Christians must often take a position in the "struggle for social justice." What is condemned is "total war," which has no respect for the dignity of others (and consequently of oneself). It excludes reasonable compromise, does not pursue the common good but the good of a group, and sets out to destroy whatever stands in its way.” WayMeanDoeWarChristianFormSocialPeaceJusticeCommonClassStruggleGroupsPositionConflictDignitySocial JusticeOneselfArisePursueCompromiseReasonableCommon GoodUbuntuTotal WarPeace And JusticeClass StruggleCondemningNo RespectPeace JusticePeace Not War Author:Pope John Paul II
