A war can perhaps be won single-handedly. But peace - lasting peace - cannot be secured without the support of all.

We cannot have peace if we are only concerned with peace. War is not an accident. It is the logical outcome of a certain way of life. If we want to attack war, we have to attack that way of life.

Peace is a question of will. All conflicts can be settled, and there are no excuses for allowing them to become eternal.

There can be no peace in the world so long as a large proportion of the population lack the necessities of life and believe that a change of the political and economic system will make them available. World peace must be based on world plenty.

Peace does not mean just to stop wars, but also to stop oppression and injustice.

Peace as a goal is an ideal which will not be contested by any government or nation, not even the most belligerent.

Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.

Peace is much more precious than a piece of land... let there be no more wars.

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.

Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.
