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.
Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.
The most dangerous untruths are truths slightly distorted.
Love truth, but pardon error.
The past is but the beginning of a beginning, and all that is and has been is but the twilight of the dawn.
Never apologise for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologise for the truth.
Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Rats and roaches live by competition under the laws of supply and demand; it is the privilege of human beings to live under the laws of justice and mercy.
Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.
When the choice is to be right or to be kind, always make the choice that brings peace
The purpose of argument is to change the nature of truth.
Anything worth doing is worth doing slowly.
The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism.
One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.
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.
Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.
The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.
I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom.
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.
