Peace Quotes

YWCA - Week Without Violence

 

Please use these quotes as often as possible on their own special day all week – in print, on air, person-to-person, over the intercom – as often as possible in whatever means you have at your disposal! And thank you for participating in the WEEK WITHOUT VIOLENCE.


October 11
One day we must come to see that peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but that it is a means by which we arrive at the goal. We must pursue peaceful ends through peaceful means. Martin Luther King, Jr.


October 12
All we are saying is give peace a chance. John Lennon


October 13
It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it. Eleanor Roosevelt


October 14
It is possible to live in peace. Mahatma Gandhi


October 15
Bullets cannot be recalled. They cannot be uninvented. But they can be taken out of the gun. Martin Amis


October 16
The only thing that's been a worse flop than the organization of non-violence has been the organization of violence. Joan Baez


October 17
Not out of right practice comes right thinking, but out of right thinking comes right practice. It matters enormously what you think. Annie Besant
