The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.

There is no 'way to peace,' there is only 'peace.

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist

The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head.

The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

Those who cry the loudest are not always the ones who are hurt the most.

There's a world of difference between truth and facts. Facts can obscure truth.

Peace is always beautiful.
