Your own self-will and anxiety, your hurry and labor, disturb your peace and prevent Me from working in you.

Nowadays, hoy en día, with our world full of war and violence and lack of love, a world full of greed, a world of domination, grasping power, venal stupidity, real evil, don’t get me started, it’s good to know that a conversation about tacos will always engender a sense of comfort and happiness. If only we could sit down at a big round world table and eat tacos in a spirit of love we might begin to work on world peace!

peace is possible. It needs to be implored from God as his gift, but it also needs to be built day by day with his help, through works of justice and love.
Pope John Paul II
-
I don't think there's any way that war can have a place in peace. 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. Peace is something that has to be vigilantly maintained; it is a vigilance, and it involves temptation, and it does not mean we as human beings are not aggressive. This is a mistaken way of understanding non-violence.
Judith Butler
-
If we want world peace, we must break the vicious circle of violence and reprisal, of an eye for an eye, of endless hate.
