Favorite Peace Quotes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“The choice is no longer between violence and nonviolence. It is either nonviolence or non-existence.” <\/p>The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Patrick writes: A week ago I prepared an obituary for Sr. Ardeth Platte, O.P., a Dominican sister who spent time in jail and prison for her anti-nuclear weapons resistance work. While researching Ardeth’s life, I found this quote from her in The Denver News:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I refuse to have an enemy. I simply won’t.<\/p>Sr. Ardeth Platte, O.P.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We who believe in freedom cannot rest!<\/em><\/p>Ella Baker<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Imagine there’s no weapons.
It’s easy if you try.
No hell below us, above us only sky.
Imagine all the people living life in peace.
You may say I\u1e3f a dreamer,
but I’m not the only one.
I hope some day you’ll join us!
And the world will live as one!<\/p>John Lennon<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The greatest challenge of the day is:
how to bring about a revolution of the heart,
a revolution which has to start
with each one of us.<\/p>Dorothy Day, founder of The Catholic Worker<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Love and ever more love is the only solution to every problem that comes up.<\/p>Dorothy Day, founder of The Catholic Worker<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
