Peace in the World Begins with Our Own Inner Peace

"Perhaps peace is not, after all, something you work for, or 'fight for.' 
It is indeed 'fighting for peace' that starts all the wars. What, after all, 
are the pretexts of all these present crises, but 'fighting for peace'? 
Peace is something you have or you do not have. If you yourself are 
at peace, then there is at least *some* peace in the world. Then you 
share your peace with everyone, and everyone will be at peace."
