From the quotes that you have posted, this is what I love best:
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 Ewart Gladstone
I truly believe in that! When our hearts are filled with love, if we look at people without judgement, and if we take responsibility for our own selves and not blame others, then truly we will achieve peace.
Wonderful quotes. I’ll add a similar one.
Peace will come, and let it begin with me.
