"He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees." ― Benjamin Franklin Topic(s): Peace Tags: would More From Benjamin Franklin "A life of leisure and a life of laziness are two things. There will be sleeping enough in the grave." "Leisure is the time for doing something useful. This leisure the diligent person will obtain the lazy one never." "A good conscience is a continual Christmas." More In Peace "We tried war, we tried aggression, we tried intervention. None of it works. Why don’t we try peace, as a science of human relations, not as some vague notion – as everyday work."― Dennis Kucinich "There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace?"― Peace Pilgrim "Only to the extent that men desire peace and brotherhood can the world be made better. No peace even though temporarily obtained, will be permanent, whether to individuals or nations, unless it is built upon the solid foundation of eternal principles."― David O. McKay
