I just want to find some inner peace, and I think I’m getting there, slowly but surely.
Toni Collette
My child, you are going to be a great king; do not imitate me in the taste I have had for building, or in that I have had for war; try, on the contrary, to be at peace with your neighbors.
Louis XIV
Peace is more than simply the absence of war; it is the absence of conditions that give rise to war.
Ron Dellums
I feel a deep emotion and pride for the honor of having been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 1992.
Rigoberta Menchu
Let love flow so that it cleanses the world. Then man can live in peace, instead of the state of turmoil he has created through his past ways of life, with all those material interests and earthly ambitions.
Sai Baba
We are all familiar with the dove carrying an olive branch as a peace offering. The jewelry I’ve created pays tribute both to the messenger’s noble mission and gardens as a refuge of peace and tranquility.
Paloma Picasso
We peruse one ideal, that of bringing people together in peace, irrespective of race, religion and political convictions, for the benefit of mankind.
Juan Antonio Samaranch
