We look forward to the time when the power of love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace. —William E. Gladstone (1809–1898)

Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely an absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people. —Jawaharlal Nehru (1889–1964)
