A Quote by John F. Kennedy

The mere absence of war is not peace. — © John F. Kennedy
The mere absence of war is not peace.
For peace is not mere absence of war, but is a virtue that springs from, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.
World peace must develop from inner peace. Peace is not just mere absence of violence. Peace is, I think, the manifestation of human compassion.
Darkness is the absence of light. Happiness is the absence of pain. Anger is the absence of joy. Jealousy is the absence of confidence. Love is the absence of doubt. Hate is the absence of peace. Fear is the absence of faith. Life is the absence of death.
Peace is more than simply the absence of war; it is the absence of conditions that give rise to war.
For peace is not mere absence of war, but is a virtue that springs from force of character: for obedience is the constant will to execute what, by the general decree of the commonwealth, ought to be done.
Real peace is more than the absence of war; it is an absence of the causes of war.
Peace isn't the mere absence of violence; peace must come from inner peace. And inner peace comes from taking others’ interests into account.
The peace we seek and need means much more than mere absence of war. It means the acceptance of law, and the fostering of justice, in all the world.
To wage war on misery and to struggle against injustice is to promote, along with improved conditions, the human and spiritual progress of all men, and therefore the common good of humanity. Peace cannot be limited to a mere absence of war, the result of an ever precarious balance of forces. No, peace is something that is built up day after day, in the pursuit of an order intended by God, which implies a more perfect form of justice among men.
Let's get rid of the suffering and bring real peace, which is not just the absence of war, but the absence of all negativity.
Peace is more than just an absence of war. True peace is justice, true peace is freedom, and true peace dictates the recognition of human rights.
Peace is more than the absence of war. Peace is accord. Harmony.
Peace is not just the mere absence of violence or disturbance. It's when there is a possibility of conflict, but you deliberately avoid violence and adopt methods to solve the problem through peaceful means. That is real peace.
Peace is neither the absence of war nor the presence of a disarmament agreement. Peace is a change of heart.
Peace is not just the absence of war. Like a cathedral, peace must be constructed patiently and with unshakable faith.
Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.
