The idea that if people are just friendly and demonstrate they want peace, that will be answered with good will - that is really naive.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Peace is that state in which fear of any kind is unknown.
People always make war when they say they love peace.
The people of the world genuinely want peace. Some day the leaders of the world are going to have to give in and give it to them.
Mankind must remember that peace is not God's gift to his creatures; peace is our gift to each other.
If you are going to make peace, you can't just meet nice people.
Peace is a fragile thing. It takes courage to secure it. It takes wisdom to maintain it.
If you want peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.
Peace should be understood in a human way - in a broad social, political and economic way. Peace is threatened by unjust economic, social and political order, absence of democracy, environmental degradation and absence of human rights.
Peace as a goal is an ideal which will not be contested by any government or nation, not even the most belligerent.
The lessons from the peace process are clear; whatever life throws at us, our individual responses will be all the stronger for working together and sharing the load.
