"This is the way of peace: Overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth, and hatred with love."
-- Peace Pilgrim

* "The way of peace is the way of love. Love is the greatest power on earth. It conquers all things."
-- Peace Pilgrim

"Be a sweet melody in the great orchestration, instead of a discordant note. The medicine this sick world needs is love. Hatred must be replaced by love, and fear by faith that love will prevail."
-- Peace Pilgrim

Love is the force, the energy that animates creativity and peace in each one of us.
-- Salle Merrill Redfield

Love is not a doctrine. Peace is not an international agreement. Love and Peace are beings who live as possibilities in us.
-- Mary Caroline Richards

Give away your love, freely and without expectation. Give it away, and soon your life will be filled with love, and you will have set others on the path of love and peace.
-- John Robbins (b. 1914)

 

* The basis of world peace is the teaching which runs through almost all the great religions of the world. "Love thy neighbor as thyself." Christ, some of the other great Jewish teachers, Buddha, all preached it. Their followers forgot it.
-- Eleanor Roosevelt

* "For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love."
-- Carl Sagan

The gift of peace begins with hearts filled with love.
-- Benjamin Shield

The better you feel about yourself, the fewer limits you will place on your ability to love.
-- Judith Sills (b. 1948)

* "After the verb "to love," the verb, "to help" is the most beautiful verb in the world."
-- Bertha Von Suttner

To love deeply in one direction makes us more loving in all others.
-- Anne-Sophie Swetchine

* Love is the most powerful and still most unknown energy in the world.
-- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Love alone can unite living beings so as to complete and fulfill them... for it alone joins them by what is deepest in themselves. All we need is to imagine our ability to love developing until it embraces the totality of men and the earth.
-- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Love is the affinity which links and draws together the elements of the world... Love, in fact, is the agent of universal synthesis.
-- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

* "It is not how much you do, but how much love you put in the doing."
-- Mother Teresa

"Love cannot remain by itself-it has no meaning, Love has to be put into action and that action is service... All works of love are works of peace."
-- Mother Teresa

"We can do no great things--only small things with great love."
-- Mother Teresa

Accustom yourself continually to make many acts of love, for they enkindle and melt the soul.
-- Saint Teresta of Avila (1515-1582)

 

Love is an act of endless forgiveness.
-- Peter Ustinov

Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.
-- Marianne Williamson
