Everyone is interested in war in that people don't want it to happen. I'm much more interested in peace than in war but it's important to understand why we fight.

When resources are degraded we start competing for them whether it is at the local level in Kenya where we had tribal clashes over land and water or at the global level where we are fighting over water oil and minerals. So one way to promote peace is to promote sustainable management and equitable distribution of resources.

I cannot imagine any writer who would not fight for his peace and quiet.

You have to do something in your life that is honorable and not cowardly if you are to live in peace with yourself and for the firefighter it is fire.

I always thought of myself as a moderate liberal a fighter for peace and justice. I never thought of myself as being all that far out.

Let me just say: Peace to you if you're willing to fight for it.

We are going to have peace even if we have to fight for it.

You either get tired fighting for peace or you die.

I am not only a pacifist but a militant pacifist. I am willing to fight for peace. Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war.

If terror groups are to be defeated it is national governments that will have to do so. In nations like India governments will have to call on the patriotism of citizens to fight the terrorists. In a nation like Pakistan the government will have to be persuaded to deal with those in their midst who are complicit.
