If you want a peaceful place to dwell Cold Mountain is guaranteed forever A light wind blows softly in the pines The sound is good when you are close One old man sits beneath the trees Reading Lao Tzu and Huang Ti, mumbling I could not find the world if I searched ten years I've forgotten the road by which I came ~ Hanshan
Peaceful Places quotes by Hanshan
Our generation has the ability and the responsibility to make our ever-more connected world a more hopeful, stable and peaceful place. ~ Natalie Portman
Peaceful Places quotes by Natalie Portman
Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Peaceful Places quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
Have you thought about the evolutionary psychology of it? Men have evolved to be strong worker homestead-keepers, while women - with babies to protect from harm - have had to become aggressive and violent. The few partial patriarchies that have ever existed in human society have been very peaceful places. ~ Naomi Alderman
Peaceful Places quotes by Naomi Alderman
Everybody needs time to reflect and contemplate, and the most inspirational and peaceful place to do so is in nature. ~ Akiane Kramarik
Peaceful Places quotes by Akiane Kramarik
No woman has ever stepped on Little America and we have found it to be the most silent and peaceful place in the world. ~ Richard E. Byrd
Peaceful Places quotes by Richard E. Byrd
Storms visit the quietest and the most peaceful places to calm themselves down and to have their nervousness cured! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Peaceful Places quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
Every man must have a peaceful place to contemplate. If you do not have such a place, you must find one! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Peaceful Places quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
I've always been under the impression that it would be such a bummer to be in a peaceful place like Hawaii or the tropics and be stressed about catching waves. ~ Shaun White
Peaceful Places quotes by Shaun White
The industrial world would be a more peaceful place if workers were called in as collaborators in the process of establishing standards and defining shop practices, matters which surely affect their interests and well-being fully as much as they affect those of employers and consumers. ~ Mary Barnett Gilson
Peaceful Places quotes by Mary Barnett Gilson
It is not enough to live here and now. Not enough for me, anyway. I need those imaginative leaps out of my own time frame and into other places - places where things were done differently. Reading has provided me with that, for the most part, but it is objects, things like these scraps of pottery, that have most keenly conjured up all those elsewheres - inaccessible but eerily available to the imagination. The past is irretrievable, but it lurks. It sends out tantalizing messages, coded signals in the form of a clay pipe stem, a smashed wine bottle. Two leaping fish from twelfth-century Cairo. I can't begin to understand what that time was like, or how the men who made them lived, but I can know that it all happened - that old Cairo existed, and a particular potter. To have the leaping fish sherd on my mantelpiece - and all those other sherds in the cake tin - expands my concept of time. There is a further dimension to memory; it is not just a private asset, but something vast, collective, resonant. And all because fragments of detritus survive, and I can consider them. ~ Penelope Lively
Peaceful Places quotes by Penelope Lively
As they pushed through the door a remarkable sight met their eyes: the Muskrat was sitting in the fork of a tree eating a pear.
"Where's mother?" asked Moomintroll.
"She's trying to get your father out of his room," replied the Muskrat, bitterly. "This is what comes of collecting plants. I've never quite trusted that Hemulen. Well, I hope the Muskrat heaven is a peaceful place, because I shan't be here much longer. ~ Tove Jansson
Peaceful Places quotes by Tove Jansson
The housecleaning our bodies perform while we sleep is powered by the shakti that energizes the sympathetic, parasympathetic, and autonomous nervous systems to send instructions to the lymphatic system, the pituitary gland, and a host of other places in our slumbering forms. Whether it is blood circulating in the veins and arteries, a nerve impulse jumping a synaptic gap in the brain, our body straining while running the hundred-meter dash, or the working out of a physics or organic chemistry problem, our shakti provides the energy to accomplish the activity. ~ Thomas Ashley-Farrand
Peaceful Places quotes by Thomas Ashley-Farrand
When I was a teenager, I continued to visit imaginary places by spending all my free time at our local community theater. Whether I acted in a play or worked backstage, the world of Tennessee Williams or Shakespeare always seemed more real to me than the dreary life of high school. ~ Mary Pope Osborne
Peaceful Places quotes by Mary Pope Osborne
If a child hasn't been given spiritual values within the family setting, they have no familiarity with the values that are necessary for the just and peaceful functioning in society. ~ Eunice Baumann-Nelson Ph.D PENOBSCOT
Peaceful Places quotes by Eunice Baumann-Nelson Ph.D PENOBSCOT
One evening in April a thirty-two-year-old woman, unconscious and severely injured, was admitted to the hospital in a provincial town south of Copenhagen. She had a concussion and internal bleeding, her legs and arms were broken in several places, and she had deep lesions in her face. A gas station attendant in a neighboring village, beside the bridge over the highway to Copenhagen, had seen her go the wrong way up the exit and drive at high speed into the oncoming traffic. The first three approaching cars managed to maneuver around her, but about 200 meters after the junction she collided head-on with a truck. The Dutch driver was admitted for observation but released the next day. According to his statement he started to brake a good 100 meters before the crash, while the car seemed to actually increase its speed over the last stretch. The front of the vehicle was totally crushed, part of the radiator was stuck between the road and the truck's bumper, and the woman had to be cut free. The spokesman for emergency services said it was a miracle she had survived. On arrival at the hospital the woman was in very critical condition, and it was twenty-four hours before she was out of serious danger. Her eyes were so badly damaged that she lost her sight. Her name was Lucca. Lucca Montale. Despite the name there was nothing particularly Italian about her appearance. She had auburn hair and green eyes in a narrow face with high cheek-bones. She was slim and fairly tall. It turned o ~ Jens Christian Grøndahl
Peaceful Places quotes by Jens Christian Grøndahl
his refusal to be seduced by new ideas or faraway places, but walking through the tiny twisting streets of New Delhi, Annie understood that Desmond's world was limited by fear. He couldn't bear to step out of the known, the familiar. In Europe he could understand the rudiments of language, the coordinates of the culture, but elsewhere he was flummoxed. The same went, she began to understand, for his absolute reliance on order and routine. ~ Hannah Mary Rothschild
Peaceful Places quotes by Hannah Mary Rothschild
Do you want to see all the wrong things in our world?
You sit right there.
Then notice how many people move too fast about in life,
they go blind over the miracle of being in the moment.

Now, do you want to see all the right things?
Well I can't honestly speak for others.
But this is how it always works for me.
I just sit right here.

Right here. Beside you.

Then silently,
I notice how all the wrong things in my world
just seem to start falling
into their rightful places.

Right here. Beside you. ~ Frederick Espiritu
Peaceful Places quotes by Frederick Espiritu
Do not deceive yourself, Gawain. There are black places in the heart of every man. ~ Suzannah Rowntree
Peaceful Places quotes by Suzannah Rowntree
I tell myself every offseason I'm not going to say anything crazy. I'm just going to have a peaceful season ... Can't do it. I'm cut from a different cloth. ~ Gary Sheffield
Peaceful Places quotes by Gary Sheffield
It wasn't just about doing tricks. It's about taking an audience to another place, a special place, so they can really suspend their disbelief. Its about amazing the audience as well as moving them. ~ David Copperfield
Peaceful Places quotes by David Copperfield
Our minds are like the universe. How do we know what's hidden in some corner of that space? Beyond the galaxies we know. To places where light doesn't travel...We feel, write, think and argue about what we see. But the unknown exists and sometimes, makes an unexpected appearance. I experienced a part of that unknown through a man. ~ Chitrangada Mukherjee
Peaceful Places quotes by Chitrangada Mukherjee
Mephistopheles: Within the bowels of these elements,
Where we are tortured and remain forever.
Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscribed
In one self place, for where we are is hell,
And where hell is must we ever be.
And, to conclude, when all the world dissolves,
And every creature shall be purified,
All places shall be hell that is not heaven. ~ Christopher Marlowe
Peaceful Places quotes by Christopher Marlowe
Let man heal the hurt places and revere whatever is still miraculously pristine. ~ David R. Brower
Peaceful Places quotes by David R. Brower
Isolation, not solitude, breaks men. If I could not find the means to deal with the isolation, then my options were severely limited. I began to call up memories of places, people, events, food-anything I could do to occupy my mind and remind myself that, even if I was being treated like an animal, I was still a living breathing human being. ~ Shawn Thompson
Peaceful Places quotes by Shawn Thompson
Internet and government is Topic A in every nation, all around the world. There is the question of getting the Internet built. That involves persuading government to have regulatory policies. It involves new technology to bring the Internet to rural places. ~ Vint Cerf
Peaceful Places quotes by Vint Cerf
Let's banish these misleaders from among us, and when we do, we shouldn't fill their places from our Persian peerage alone. As our journey continues, we're going to be joined by many races of men. Just as we choose our horses from the best stocks, not limiting ourselves to our national breed, we should choose the best men to join us in the work of command, regardless of their country or color." A ~ Xenophon
Peaceful Places quotes by Xenophon
If our thoughts are stretching across the sea to the landing at home, and the welcome there, we shall not fight with our fellow-passengers about our cabins or places at the table. ~ Alexander MacLaren
Peaceful Places quotes by Alexander MacLaren
I worked at car washes - two or three different car washes. I worked at McDonald's and Wendy's, I worked as a dishwasher and as a telemarketer in two or three different places. I sold windows door-to-door and never once sold a window. ~ Joseph Bruce
Peaceful Places quotes by Joseph Bruce
Being invisible would be pretty great. You could watch everybody, sneak into places and know what people were saying. ~ Jaime Pressly
Peaceful Places quotes by Jaime Pressly
I have seen flowers come in stony places
And kind things done by men with ugly faces,
And the gold cup won by the worst horse at the races,
So I trust, too. ~ John Masefield
Peaceful Places quotes by John Masefield
..for Africa was in a way none of them could explain linked up with heaven and they thought of the two places with the same reverence and ultimate longing. ~ Elizabeth Yates
Peaceful Places quotes by Elizabeth Yates
When it's "he said/she said," the woman can't win. But when it's "he said/she said/she said/she said/she said/she said," transparency has a chance, and light can flood the places where abusive behavior thrives. ~ Melinda Gates
Peaceful Places quotes by Melinda Gates
By strengthening the three pillars of the United Nations - security, development and human rights - we can build a more peaceful, more prosperous and more just world for our succeeding generations. ~ Ban Ki-moon
Peaceful Places quotes by Ban Ki-moon
11 And the LORD will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be u like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. ~ Anonymous
Peaceful Places quotes by Anonymous
A man will gain power and efficiency as he accepts the responsibilities that God places upon him, and with his whole soul seeks to qualify himself to bear them aright. However humble his position or limited his ability, that man will attain true greatness who, trusting to divine strength, seeks to perform his work with fidelity. Had Moses relied upon his own strength and wisdom, and eagerly accepted the great charge, he would have evinced his entire unfitness for such a work. The fact that a man feels his weakness is at least some evidence that he realizes the magnitude of the work appointed him, and that he will make God his counselor and his strength. ~ Ellen G. White
Peaceful Places quotes by Ellen G. White
In the Game of Life, as in our world, self-reproducing patterns are complex objects. One estimate, based on the earlier work of mathematician John von Neumann, places the minimum size of a self-replicating pattern in the Game of Life at ten trillion squares - roughly the number of molecules in a single human cell. ~ Stephen Hawking
Peaceful Places quotes by Stephen Hawking
The lighthearted moments of 'Girls' are really not speckled throughout and that to me is just super exciting, to be able to delve into the darkness that you are greeted with in your early 20s and the fear and what that makes you do, the places that you can potentially go with that. ~ Zosia Mamet
Peaceful Places quotes by Zosia Mamet
Never get your sense of worth from outside yourself. Never fall into the trap of thinking that who you are is not enough and that you need other people's approval, love and validation in order to feel that you're of value. Never allow external things, places, people and circumstances to determine or tell you how much you're worth. It's called self-worth, not others' worth. ~ Luminita D. Saviuc
Peaceful Places quotes by Luminita D. Saviuc
There was a time when mapmakers named the places they travelled through with the names of lovers rather than their own. ~ Michael Ondaatje
Peaceful Places quotes by Michael Ondaatje
Certain places in the natural world still possess a strange, perhaps spiritual charge, which we can sense almost immediately. ~ Jane Hope
Peaceful Places quotes by Jane Hope
To keep from crying in front of everyone, I ran down the hall, opened the first door I saw, and dashed inside. Too late I realized the room was already occupied. An old man in a wheelchair sat beside a window. Of all the places I might have gone, I'd chosen Great-grandfather's sanctuary. ~ Mary Downing Hahn
Peaceful Places quotes by Mary Downing Hahn
red-trunked rhododendron trees looked like so many writhing russet snakes. In some places the forest floor was carpeted crimson with fallen rhododendron petals. ~ Jane Wilson-Howarth
Peaceful Places quotes by Jane Wilson-Howarth
Now I become myself. It's taken time, many years and places. ~ May Sarton
Peaceful Places quotes by May Sarton
Either the world is at fault, or we're looking for meaning in the wrong places. ~ J.G. Ballard
Peaceful Places quotes by J.G. Ballard
When you find Peace within, you create a Peaceful world around you. ~ Louise Hay
