I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.
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.
Sometimes the truth hurts. And sometimes it feels real good.

Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.
I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.
There is no 'way to peace,' there is only 'peace.
Strive always to excel in virtue and truth.

Never apologise for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologise for the truth.
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.
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.
The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.
No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as the truth.

The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head.
If someone thinks that peace and love are just a cliche that must have been left behind in the 60s, that's a problem. Peace and love are eternal.
Of life's two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer's hand.
