Let us not deceive ourselves we must elect world peace or world destruction.

Without free self-respecting and autonomous citizens there can be no free and independent nations. Without internal peace that is peace among citizens and between the citizens and the state there can be no guarantee of external peace.

If there's no inner peace people can't give it to you. The husband can't give it to you. Your children can't give it to you. You have to give it to you.

We can realise a lasting peace and transform the East-West relationship to one of enduring co-operation.

But I do know focusing on the exterior doesn't make me happy. If I want peace and serenity it won't be reached by getting thinner or fatter.

Whoever tramples on the plea for justice temperately made in the name of peace only outrages peace and kills something fine in the heart of man which God put there when we got our manhood.

The threat today is not that of the 1930s. It's not big powers going to war with each other. The ravages which fundamentalist political ideology inflicted on the 20th century are memories. The Cold war is over. Europe is at peace if not always diplomatically.

Since there will be no one left to talk peace after the next war it makes good sense to break with tradition and hold the peace conference first.

Peace is not the absence of war but a virtue based on strength of character.

Peace is much more precious than a piece of land... let there be no more wars.
