Praying without ceasing is not ritualized, nor are there even words. It is a constant state of awareness of oneness with God; it is a sincere seeking for a good thing; and it is a concentration on the thing sought, with faith that it is obtainable.
~ Peace Pilgrim
If you feed a man a meal you only feed him for a day-but if you teach a man to grow food you feed him for a lifetime.
I wish that every child could have growing space because I think children are a little like plants. If they grow too close together they become thin and sickly and never obtain maximum growth. We need room to grow.
Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulness possesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of us are possessed by our possessions.
No one can find inner peace except by working, not in a self- centered way, but for the whole human family.
Make food a very incidental part of your life by filling your life so full of meaningful things that you'll hardly have time to think about food.
One little person, giving all of her time to peace, makes news. Many people, giving some of their time, can make history.
The way of peace is the way of love. Love is the greatest power on earth. It conquers all things.
I don't eat junk foods and I don't think junk thoughts.
Unnecessary possessions are unnecessary burdens. If you have them, you have to take care of them! There is great freedom in simplicity of living. It is those who have enough but not too much who are the happiest.
To attain inner peace you must actually give your life, not just your possessions. When you at last give your life - bringing into alignment your beliefs and the way you live then, and only then, can you begin to find inner peace.
The simplification of life is one of the steps to inner peace. A persistent simplification will create an inner and outer well-being that places harmony in one's life.
There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace?
When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.
This is the way of peace: Overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth, and hatred with love.
