It
seems to me that there are two great enemies of peace
- fear and selfishness.

We
are privileged to have the opportunity of contributing
to the achievement of the goal of the abolition
of war and its replacement by world law. I am
confident that we shall succeed in this great
task; that the world community will thereby
be freed not only from the suffering caused
by war but also through the better use of the
earth's resources, of the discoveries of scientists,
and of the efforts of mankind, from hunger,
disease, illiteracy, and fear; and that we shall
in the course of time be enabled to build a
world characterized by economic, political,
and social justice for all human beings and
a culture worthy of man's intelligence.
-- Linus Pauling

"Be
a sweet melody in the great orchestration, instead
of a discordant note. The medicine this sick
world needs is love. Hatred must be replaced
by love, and fear by faith that love will prevail."

Misunderstanding
arising from ignorance breeds fear, and fear remains
the greatest enemy of peace.
-- Lester
B. Pearson |
Consult
not your fears but your hopes and dreams. Think not
about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled
potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried
and failed in, but with what is still possible for
you to do.
-- Pope John XXIII

Once
you inject fear into a society of people, they
become more and more afraid because they don’t
cross over the neighbourhoods and the only information
they get about other people is through the media.
-- Sister Helen

"I
believe that love, kindness, compassion, tolerance,
and peace can be implanted in the psyche of man only
when fear, paranormal illusion and ignorance are removed.
We can then shift our attention more to matters of
peace, rather than to matters of war."
-- Peter Retzinger

"Peace
is not the product of terror or fear. Peace
is not the silence of cemeteries. Peace is not
the silent result of violent repression. Peace
is the generous, tranquil contribution of all
to the good of all. Peace is dynamism. Peace
is generosity. It is right and it is duty."
-- Oscar Romero

You
gain strength, courage and confidence by every
experience in which you really stop to look
fear in the face…You must do the thing you
think you cannot do.
-- Eleanor
Roosevelt
*
"I
believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing
the things he fears to do, provided he keeps
doing them until he gets a record of successful
experience behind him."
-- Eleanor
Roosevelt

The
only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
-- Franklin
D. Roosevelt
We
have learned the simple truth, as Emerson said
that the only way to have a friend is to be
one. We can gain no lasting peace if we approach
it with suspicion or mistrust or with fear.
-- Franklin
Delano Roosevelt

"There
is no greater gift to an insecure leader that
quite matches a vague enemy who can be used
to whip up fear and hatred among the population."

Rusesabagina

"Fear
is the main source of superstition, and one
of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear
is the beginning of wisdom."
-- Bertrand
Russell
Collective
fear stimulates herd instinct, and tends to
produce ferocity toward those who are not regarded
as members of the herd.
-- Bertrand
Russell
