For me, it is essential to have the inner peace and serenity of prayer in order to listen to the silence of God, which speaks to us, in our personal life and the history of our times, of the power of love.

A single grateful thought toward heaven is the most perfect prayer.

I still say the 'Lord's Prayer' every day. It covers a lot of ground in our relation to the world.

I think the Lord's Prayer is a very powerful prayer. And the prayer of St. Francis.

I believe that the greatest form of prayer is praise to God.

Prayer becomes more meaningful as we counsel with the Lord in all of our doings, as we express heartfelt gratitude, and as we pray for others.

I think of my peace paintings as one long poem, with each painting being a single stanza.

Prayer is man's greatest power!

Poetry and beauty are always making peace. When you read something beautiful you find coexistence; it breaks walls down.
