True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of
justice.
~  ~ Peace is not the absence of war; it is a virtue; a state of mind; a disposition for benevolence; confidence; and justice.
~ ~ Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear. ~ ~ Peace is not the absence of war; it is a virtue; a state of mind; a disposition for benevolence; confidence; and justice. ~ ~ We often think of peace as the absence of war; that if the powerful countries would reduce their arsenals, we could have peace. But if we look deeply into the weapons, we see our own minds - our prejudices, fears, and ignorance. Even if we transported all the bombs to the moon, the roots of war and the reasons for bombs would still be here, in our hearts and minds, and sooner or later we would make new bombs. Seek to become more aware of what causes anger and separation, and what overcomes them. Root out the violence in your life, and learn to live compassionately and mindfully ~ ~ In the absence of a subject with which you are passionately involved, and without the excitement that drives you to grasp it and exhaust it, you may take some beautiful pictures, but not a photographic oeuvre. ~ ~ I love luxury. And luxury lies not in richness and ornateness but in the absence of vulgarity. Vulgarity is the ugliest word in our language. I stay in the game to fight it. ~ ~ Absence doth sharpen love, presence strengthens it; the one brings fuel, the other blows it till it burns clear. ~ ~ Absence - that common cure of love. ~ ~ Absence weakens mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind blows out candles and kindles fires. ~ ~ The joy of life is variety; the tenderest love requires to be rekindled by intervals of absence ~ ~ Our lives are fed by kind words and gracious behavior. We are nourished by expressions like 'excuse me,' and other such simple courtesies... Rudeness, the absence of the sacrament of consideration, is but another mark that our time-is-money society is lacking in spirituality, if not also in the enjoyment of life.
