The point of departure of the process to which we wish to contribute is the fact that war is the natural reaction of human nature in the savage state, while peace is the result of acquired characteristics.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.
Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.
Our most important task is to transform our consciousness so that violence is no longer an option for us in our personal lives, that understanding that a world of peace is possible only if we relate to each other as peaceful beings, one individual at a time.
Peace can be contributed to by respect for our ability in defense.
The attainment of the economic aims of man presupposes peace.
Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict - alternatives to passive or aggressive responses, alternatives to violence.
We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war but the postive affirmation of peace.
Peace does not mean just to stop wars, but also to stop oppression and injustice.
The purpose of all wars, is peace.
Everybody wants peace. That's a truism. There is no point in accomplishing through war what you can accomplish through peace.
