I think that peace is the active and difficult resistance to the temptation of war; it is the prerogative and the obligation of the injured.

This is a mistaken way of understanding non-violence.

There is, though I do not know how there is or why there is, a sense of infinite peace and protection in the glittering hosts of heaven.
