Top10 Best Quotes on Peace Day

 

Peace is something that cannot be found anywhere but it must be maintained everyday. It starts within ourselves and not just being forced from others. Here are the inspiring quotes that could remind us to spread it religiously.

10. Franklin Roosevelt Hates War

He said, “I have seen war. I have seen war on land and sea. I have seen blood running from the wounded. I have seen the dead in mud. I have seen cities destroyed. I have seen children starving. I have seen the agony of mothers and wives. I hate war”. He is an advocate of peace by promoting war free zone across the globe.

9. Matthew 5:26

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God”. This is an inspired canonical counsel given by the Prince of Peace himself, Jesus Christ.

8. Eleanor Roosevelt’s Belief

“It is not enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.” Peace is found within us if we believe on it, only then it would happen.

7. The Profoundness of Francois de la Rochefoucauld

“When we are unable to find tranquility within ourselves, it is useless to seek it elsewhere”. We cannot really find it anywhere because peace starts in us and not from the situations or people around us.

6. Hellen Keller Sees it

“I do not want peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace”. Peace comes as we learn to understand, which shuns away confusion and bitterness.

5. Thomas Merton’s Spiritual Peace

“We are not at peace with others because we are not at peace with ourselves, and we are not at peace with ourselves because we are not at peace with God”. Peace comes as we learn to be dependent upon Him and not upon ourselves, only then we can truly develop peace in us.

4. Robert Fulgum’s Definition of Peace

“Peace is not something you wish for; it’s something you make, something you do, something you are, and something you give away.” We truly express peace on the things that we do and it starts on how we think of things. It starts in our minds and it should be an everyday undertaking.

3. Mother Teresa’s Invitation

“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other”. Selfishness destroys peace because it opposes peace after all.

2. Mohandas Gandhi Solution

“An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind”. We must use our eyes and not just eyes to see the cause that distracts peace in the world.

1. Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Message

“Nobody can bring you peace but yourself”. As much as we wanted to bring about to peace in our home, with others, and within ourselves, things must start within us. We must be peacemakers ourselves but we must understand its meaning so we can live it not just in word but also in deed.
