Age is not measured by years. Nature does not equally distribute energy. Some people are born old and tired while others are going strong at seventy.
~ Dorothy Thompson
Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.
To have felt too much is to end in feeling nothing.
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.
Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism.
