Five enemies of peace inhabit with us - avarice, ambition, envy, anger, and pride; if these were to be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace.

Petrarch

Sticking with that uncertainty, getting the knack of relaxing in the midst of chaos, learning not to panic—this is the spiritual path.

Pema Chödrön

Don't search for anything except peace. Try to calm the mind. Everything else will come on its own.

Baba Hari Das

Being lazy does not mean that you do not create. In fact, lying around doing nothing is an important, nay crucial, part of the creative process. It is meaningless bustle that actually gets in the way of productivity. All we are really saying is, give peace a chance.

Tom Hodgkinson

All your anxiety is because of your desire for harmony. Seek disharmony, then you will gain peace.

Rumi

There shall be an eternal summer in the grateful heart.

Celia Thaxter
