Peace Quotes
-
I don't have to run the Peace Corps. I could live without seeing my picture in the newspapers and without being interviewed.
Sargent Shriver

We have to trust the Lord God for so many things, and it is but one thing more to trust him in the issues of life and death, and to accept the fact that his plans and promises and purposes transcend the bounds of this world and of this life. With such faith the years are kind, and peace and reconciliation do come to those who have laid to rest their loved ones - who, even in death, are not far removed from us, and of whom our Father in heaven will be mindful until we meet again even as we are mindful of our own children.
Richard L. Evans

Eric Weiner

The man who fears war and squats opposing
My words for stour, hath no blood of crimson

The bottom line is this: Peace will come to Israel and the Middle East only when the Israeli government is willing to comply with international law, with the Roadmap for Peace, with official American policy, with the wishes of a majority of its own citizens - and honor its own previous commitments - by accepting its legal borders. All Arab neighbors must pledge to honor Israel's right to live in peace under these conditions.
Jimmy Carter
-
In a nuclear age, each of us is threatened when peace is not secured everywhere.
Jimmy Carter
-
The United States of America is still run by its citizens. The government works for us. Rank imperialism and warmongering are not American traditions or values. We do not need to dominate the world. We want and need to work with other nations. We want to find solutions other than killing people. Not in our name, not with our money, not with our children's blood.
Molly Ivins

It goes without saying that the stability of the Middle East is the foundation for peace and prosperity for the world, and of course for Japan.
