Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.

There is nothing so powerful as truth - and often nothing so strange.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.

A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.

The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.

Peace begins with a smile..

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

There is no 'way to peace,' there is only 'peace.

Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else

Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.

Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed.

Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.

If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.

The happiness of society is the end of government.

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

It is not worthy of a speaker of truth to curse people.

If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.
