In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!
Graham Greene, British Playwright (1904-1991)
I said to the German Ambassador that, as long as there was only a dispute between Austria and Serbia alone, I did not feel entitled to intervene; but that, directly it was a matter between Austria and Russia, it became a question of the peace of Europe, which concerned us all.
Edward Grey, British Politician (1862-1933)
If the union between England and America is a powerful factor in the cause of peace, a new Triple Alliance between the Teutonic race and the two branches of the Anglo-Saxon race will be a still more potent influence in the future of the world.
Edward Grey, British Politician (1862-1933)
Peace was declared, but not all of us were drunk with joy or stricken blind.
George Grosz, German Artist (1893-1959)
We have peace with God as soon as we believe, but not always with ourselves. The pardon may be past the prince's hand and seal, and yet not put into the prisoner's hand.
William Gurnall, English Author
This celebration here tells me that this work is not hopeless. I thank you for this teaching with all my heart and lift my glass to human solidarity, to the ultimate victory of knowledge, peace, good-will and understanding.
Albert Szent Gyorgyi, Hungarian Scientist (1893-1986)
What my job is, is to get on with getting the process of democratic politics, back on the road, entrenching the peace settlement, and I ask you to judge me on my record.
Peter Hain, British Politician (1950-  )
A lot of leading countries in the world, including the United States and Russia, have to take their responsibilities much more seriously to ensure we are back on the road to peace and stability.
Peter Hain, British Politician (1950-  )
Remote villages and communities have lost their identity, and their peace and charm have been sacrificed to that worst of abominations, the automobile.
James Norman Hall, American Author (1887-1951)
President George W. Bush is the first American president to call openly for two-states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security.
Lee H. Hamilton, American Politician (1931-  )
Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions.
Dag Hammarskjold, Swedish Diplomat (1905-1961)
The pursuit of peace and progress cannot end in a few years in either victory or defeat. The pursuit of peace and progress, with its trials and its errors, its successes and its setbacks, can never be relaxed and never abandoned.
Dag Hammarskjold, Swedish Diplomat (1905-1961)
Never for the sake of peace and quiet deny your convictions.
Dag Hammarskjold, Swedish Diplomat (1905-1961)
Peace is not the product of a victory or a command. It has no finishing line, no final deadline, no fixed definition of achievement. Peace is a never-ending process, the work of many decisions.
Oscar Hammerstein II, American Musician (1895-1960)
Let me just say: Peace to you, if you're willing to fight for it.
Fred Hampton, American Activist (1948-1969)
My politics are of a practical kind - the integrity of the country, the supremacy of the Federal government, an honorable peace, or none at all.
Winfield Scott Hancock, American Soldier (1824-1886)
The practice of peace and reconciliation is one of the most vital and artistic of human actions.
Nhat Hanh, Vietnamese Activist (1926-  )
If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.
Nhat Hanh, Vietnamese Activist (1926-  )
Smiling is very important. If we are not able to smile, then the world will not have peace. It is not by going out for a demonstration against nuclear missiles that we can bring about peace. It is with our capacity of smiling, breathing, and being peace that we can make peace.
Nhat Hanh, Vietnamese Activist (1926-  )
Take away the violence and who will hear the men of peace?
Lorraine Hansberry, American Playwright (1930-1965)
