Dona Nobis Pacem(Grant Us Peace)
Posted by Willa on November 6, 2008 under Miscellaneous—-Today is a Blog Blast For Peace Day. If you want to join,you can visit this site and follow the rules there. Today is the day that I have to post something Peace related stuff,either my own article, maybe article from magazine that I might want to share,photo that show peace,just about anything. And today I decided I will post a few famous quotes from famous people who i think want nothing from this world but PEACE.
- We shall find peace. We shall hear angels. We shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds.-Anton Chekov
- There never was a good war or a bad peace.-Benjamin Franklin
- The peace and welfare of this and coming generations of Americans will be secure only as we cling to the watchword of true patriotism: “Our country — when right to be kept right; when wrong to be put right.”-Carl Schurz
- In peace the sons bury their fathers, but in war the fathers bury their sons.-Croesus
- Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It is the product of Faith, Strength, Energy, Will, Sympathy, Justice, Imagination, and the triumph of principle. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism.-Dorothy Thompson
- We seek peace, knowing that peace is the climate of freedom.-Dwight Eisenhower
- I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, one’s own family or nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace.-The Dalai Lama
- I do not want the peace that passeth understanding. I want the understanding which bringeth peace.-Helen Keller
- When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.-Jimi Hendrix
- Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will live as one.-John Lenon

Some great peace quotes there. The idea of the Dalai Lama is probably necessary for peace, but so hard for humans to actually do in reality.
I loved the Helen Keller quote. And the John Lennon’s made me hope he knows, somehow, about President Obama’s election.
Peace to you.
