The vigour of our spiritual life will be in exact proportion to the place held by the Bible in our life and thoughts. -George Muller

A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety. - Aesop

Courage is the price that life extracts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things; Knows not the livid loneliness of fear.- Amelia Earhart, 1897 - 1937

Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without. - Siddhartha Gautama, 563 - 483 BC
(No. If comes from above, but this is Buddhism encapsulated- GJW)

Five great enemies to peace inhabit with us: avarice, ambition, envy, anger and pride. If those enemies were to be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace. - Francesco Petrarch, 1304 - 1374

Our work for peace must begin within the private world of each one of us. To build for man a world without fear, we must be without fear. To build a world of justice, we must be just. - Dag Hammarskjöld, 1905 - 1961
