There will be no lasting peace either in the heart of individuals or in social customs until death is outlawed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If peace cannot be maintained with honour, it is no longer peace.
Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism.
There is no peace because the making of peace is at least as costly as the making of war - at least as exigent, at least as disruptive, at least as liable to bring disgrace and prison and death in its wake.
There can be no peace with someone who wants to kill you.
The world will never have lasting peace so long as men reserve for war the finest human qualities. Peace, no less than war, requires idealism and self-sacrifice and a righteous and dynamic faith.
If few can stand a long war without deterioration of soul, none can stand a long peace.
Until we have created a romance of peace that would equal that of war, violence will not disappear from people's lives.
If there is to be any peace it will come through being, not having.
There is no greater responsibility resting upon peoples and governments everywhere than to make sure that enduring peace will this time - at long last - be established and maintained.
Peace is a question of will. All conflicts can be settled, and there are no excuses for allowing them to become eternal.
