Peace Quotes
(40+ quotes)

Peace quotes in this collection are meant to promote peace. Peace in the world starts with peace in your heart (quote me on that)! I hope these quotes go straight to your heart.

We all hold a vision for peace on earth. If offered three wishes – our first wish is usually for more wishes. Even if that request is denied, most of us would use two wishes for ourselves and offer the third for peace in the world. The peace quotes in our collection are filled with hope and possibility. The key is feeling peace in our lives regardless of what is going on in our world at the moment. Meditation quotes might help if that goal seems out of reach right now.

If peace seems like an impossible goal, consider the idea that words can be deceiving. Even the word impossible holds possibility. Read: I M POSSIBLE and know peace, just like everything else important, starts with you and your personal world.

Every thought you think, word you utter, and action you take, either promotes peace of adds to conflict. Start choosing to act and re-act with peace. Read peace quotes daily and consider yourself an active member of the growing group of peace promoters on the planet. From here you might find thought quotes and word quotes helpful. And so it is. With peace and blessings,
