We need a Peace Department in our national government to do extensive research on peaceful ways of resolving conflicts. Then we can ask other countries to create similar departments. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Resolving Conflict quotes by Peace Pilgrim
We found out that the young people who had a substantial number of lessons in the Resolving Conflict Creatively Curriculum ... not only did better in terms of people skills, that they managed their emotions, they were less violent and more caring, but they actually did better on their academic achievement tests. ~ Linda Lantieri
Resolving Conflict quotes by Linda Lantieri
A linguistically informed literary criticism is the key to resolving conflict and frustration, from psychotherapy and law to philosophy and politics. Call this the messianic theory. It is based on the idea that TO THINK IS TO GRASP A METAPHOR-the metaphor metaphor. ~ Steven Pinker
Resolving Conflict quotes by Steven Pinker
The number one goal in resolving a conflict is to make sure both sides maintain their self-esteem. Resolving conflict is rarely about who is right. It is about acknowledgment and appreciation of differences. ~ Thomas Crum
Resolving Conflict quotes by Thomas Crum
It is not my purpose here to document the destruction caused by war [...] The point is to ask ourselves why these accounts have not had greater effect. [...] Why is it that many of us are deeply moved by visual art, fiction, and firsthand accounts of destruction and yet accept war as a means of resolving conflict or defending ourselves? ~ Nel Noddings
Resolving Conflict quotes by Nel Noddings
If an agency is the ultimate judge in every case of conflict, then it is also judge in all conflicts involving itself. Consequently, instead of merely preventing and resolving conflict, a monopolist of ultimate decision making will also cause and provoke conflict in order to settle it to his own advantage. That is, if one can only appeal to the state for justice, justice will be perverted in the favor of the state, constitutions and supreme courts notwithstanding. ~ Hans-Hermann Hoppe
Resolving Conflict quotes by Hans-Hermann Hoppe
There is a magic formula for resolving conflicts. It is this: Have as your objective the resolving of the conflict, not the gaining of advantage. There is a magic formula for avoiding conflicts. It is this: Be concerned that you do not offend, not that you are not offended. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Resolving Conflict quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Empathy is the key to negotiating and resolving conflict. ~ Arthur P. Ciaramicoli
Resolving Conflict quotes by Arthur P. Ciaramicoli
The most constructive way of resolving conflicts is to avoid them ~ Felix Frankfurter
Resolving Conflict quotes by Felix Frankfurter
That these girls avoid use of physical violence in resolving conflict, does not mean that these conflicts are resolved in meaningful and enduring ways. Girls might smile, give in, give up - and then continue the conflict behind their opponents' backs. Girls might also smile, give in, make fatal compromises, because their need to belong (or not to be excluded) is more important to them than sticking to their principles. ~ Phyllis Chesler
Resolving Conflict quotes by Phyllis Chesler
Sometimes the simplest solution out of conflict is becoming someone's friend, instead of saying goodbye forever. ~ Shannon L. Alder
Resolving Conflict quotes by Shannon L. Alder
Society, in which we all live, is corrupt, immoral, aggressive, destructive. This society has been going on in primitive or modified form for thousands of years upon thousands of years, but it is the same pattern being repeated. These are all facts, not opinion or judgment. Facing this enormous crisis, one asks not only what one is to do but also who is responsible, who has brought the chaos, the confusion, the utter misery of humanity. Is the economic crisis, the social crisis, the crisis of war, the building of enormous armaments, the appalling waste, outside of us? Inwardly, psychologically, we are also very confused; there is constant conflict, struggle, pain, anxiety.

We are together taking a journey into the whole structure that mankind has created, the disorder that human beings have brought about in this world. There is misery, chaos, confusion outwardly in society; and also inwardly, psychologically, in the psyche, the consciousness, there are pain and struggles. What are you going to do about all this? Turn to leaders, better politicians? This one isn't good, but the next one will be better; and the next one still better. We keep this game going. We have looked to various so-called spiritual leaders, the whole hierarchy of the Christian world. They are as confused, as uncertain, as we are. If you turn to the psychologists or the psychotherapists, they are confused like you and me.

And there are all the ideologies: communist ideologies, Marxis ~ Jiddu Krishnamurti
Resolving Conflict quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
I sometimes say the conflict in the work is the conflict of my own thoughts and anxieties. It's a civil war in my head. The top part [of my artwork] is you letting go and floating. You become part of the air and you've tapped into the heartbeat of the universe. I guess that's what people do when they meditate. ~ Ali Banisadr
Resolving Conflict quotes by Ali Banisadr
We are all taught to venerate our nations and admire our traditions: we are taught to pursue their interests with toughness and in disregard for other societies. A new and in my opinion appalling tribalism is fracturing societies, separating peoples, promoting greed, bloody conflict, and uninteresting assertions of minor ethnic or group particularity. ~ Edward W. Said
Resolving Conflict quotes by Edward W. Said
So it went on continually, the recurrence of love and conflict between them. One day it seemed as if everything was shattered, all life spoiled, ruined, desolate and laid waste. The next day it was all marvellous again, just marvellous. One day she thought she would go mad from his very presence, the sound of his drinking was detestable to her. The next day she loved and rejoiced in the way he crossed the floor, he was sun, moon and stars in one. ~ D.H. Lawrence
Resolving Conflict quotes by D.H. Lawrence
There is no solution to the conflict except with the disappearance of Israel. ~ Hassan Nasrallah
Resolving Conflict quotes by Hassan Nasrallah
I've known plenty of couples who choose to ignore budding problems or dissatisfactions because it's easier in the moment. But too much of that for long enough, and you all of a sudden have a huge problem on your hands, or a midlife crisis, or a broken marriage. ~ Fawn Weaver
Resolving Conflict quotes by Fawn Weaver
I started acting long before I decided to pursue it. I started acting as an amateur when I was a kid, but I wanted to become a diplomat. It was self-centered and weird, but I had this idea of going out in the world and solving conflicts and making the world a better place. ~ Stellan Skarsgard
Resolving Conflict quotes by Stellan Skarsgard
Much of the conflict occurring in congregations is caused when a church calls a pastor whose gifts and passion do not match what the church has been in the past. ~ Rick Warren
Resolving Conflict quotes by Rick Warren
Confront somebody with an issue before it becomes a conflict. Confrontation is not all bad. ~ Sunday Adelaja
Resolving Conflict quotes by Sunday Adelaja
I like movies that deal with trapped men. Men that need to make choices that are not obvious or easy choices. Then how do you visualize this? You create this character conflicted between two sides, because drama is about the conflict of two things, between your duty and your will, between what you want and what you can't have. It is all conflict between two things, and this is why you put your character in a place where you can visualize the conflict. ~ Hany Abu-Assad
Resolving Conflict quotes by Hany Abu-Assad
What's a house when you've lost a country?' she says with a sigh. ~ Yasmina Khadra
Resolving Conflict quotes by Yasmina Khadra
In great teams, conflict becomes productive. The free flow of conflicting ideas is critical for creative thinking, for discovering new solutions no one individual would have come to on his own. ~ Peter Senge
Resolving Conflict quotes by Peter Senge
If we had a better understanding of the ways we think about enemies, we might be able to think of more rational ways of settling conflict. ~ Sam Keen
Resolving Conflict quotes by Sam Keen
Without conflict, there can be no trust. Conflict exists to show us who is there for us unconditionally and who is just there for the benefits. (p.183) ~ Mark Manson
Resolving Conflict quotes by Mark Manson
Between stimulus and response is the freedom to choose. ~ Viktor E. Frankl
Resolving Conflict quotes by Viktor E. Frankl
Conflict is always more interesting to play. Not everyone gets along in the trauma unit. In a hard-pressed job like this, there will always be friction. ~ Neve McIntosh
Resolving Conflict quotes by Neve McIntosh
A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you're not living in alignment; you're not be being true to yourself. ~ Steve Maraboli
Resolving Conflict quotes by Steve Maraboli
Actually - and this was where I began to feel seriously uncomfortable - some such divine claim underlay not just 'the occupation' but the whole idea of a separate state for Jews in Palestine. Take away the divine warrant for the Holy Land and where were you, and what were you? Just another land-thief like the Turks or the British, except that in this case you wanted the land without the people. And the original Zionist slogan - 'a land without a people for a people without a land' - disclosed its own negation when I saw the densely populated Arab towns dwelling sullenly under Jewish tutelage. You want irony? How about Jews becoming colonizers at just the moment when other Europeans had given up on the idea? ~ Christopher Hitchens
Resolving Conflict quotes by Christopher Hitchens
In brainwashing and the eliciting of confessions, the physiological importance of inducing a sense of guilt and conflict can hardly be over emphasized. ~ William Sargant
Resolving Conflict quotes by William Sargant
My job is unbearable to me because it conflicts with my only desire and my only calling, which is literature. Since I am nothing but literature and can and want to be nothing else, my job will never take possession of me, it may, however, shatter me completely, and this is by no means a remote possibility. ~ Franz Kafka
Resolving Conflict quotes by Franz Kafka
Dead men never pick up their trophies. ~ Michael Weisskopf
Resolving Conflict quotes by Michael Weisskopf
It was so strange to be in a state of intense conflict with a person she barely knew. ~ Liane Moriarty
Resolving Conflict quotes by Liane Moriarty
Our goal in science is to discover universal laws of nature. If one's faith requires one to abandon or ignore natural laws, well, that person is going to have trouble reconciling religion and science. Otherwise, there is no any conflict. ~ Bill Nye
Resolving Conflict quotes by Bill Nye
There is no conflict in the world that cannot be solved. ~ Jonathan Powell
Resolving Conflict quotes by Jonathan Powell
Selfishness is the bedrock on which all moral behavior starts and it can be immoral only when it conflicts with a higher moral imperative. ~ Robert A. Heinlein
Resolving Conflict quotes by Robert A. Heinlein
In youth, our blood rises and becomes volatile. Desire, worry, and anxiety increase. External circumstances now direct the rise and fall of emotions. Will and intention become constrained by social conventions. Competition, conflict, and scheming are the norm in interactions with people. The approval and disapproval of others become important, and the honest and sincere expression of thoughts and feelings is lost. ~ Liezi
Resolving Conflict quotes by Liezi
I don't believe in "original sin." I don't believe in "guilt." I don't believe in villains or heroes - only right or wrong ways that individuals have taken, not by choice but by necessity or by certain still-uncomprehended influences in themselves, their circumstances, and their antecedents.
This is so simple I'm ashamed to say it, but I'm sure it's true. In fact, I would bet my life on it! And that's why I don't understand why our propaganda machines are always trying to teach us, to persuade us, to hate and fear other people on the same little world that we live in. ~ Tennessee Williams
Resolving Conflict quotes by Tennessee Williams
Even the alleged benefits of war, so far as more than alleged, spring from the fact that conflict of peoples at least enforces intercourse between them and thus accidentally enables them to learn from one another, and thereby to expand their horizons. Travel, economic and commercial tendencies, have at present gone far to break down external barriers; to bring peoples and classes into closer and more perceptible connection with one another. ~ John Dewey
Resolving Conflict quotes by John Dewey
Those who are against you, just let them enjoy their time. Your time will come ten times better than theirs. ~ Reverend-Leon
Resolving Conflict quotes by Reverend-Leon
We sincerely and earnestly believe in peace; but if peace and justice conflict, we scorn the man who would not stand for justice though the whole world came in arms against him. ~ Theodore Roosevelt
Resolving Conflict quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
In this chapter, we've considered six psychological tendencies that exacerbate intertribal conflict. First, human tribes are tribalistic, favoring Us over Them. Second, tribes have genuine disagreements about how societies should be organized, emphasizing, to different extents, the rights of individuals versus the greater good of the group. Tribal values also differ along other dimensions, such as the role of honor in prescribing responses to threats. Third, tribes have distinctive moral commitments, typically religious ones, whereby moral authority is vested in local individuals, texts, traditions, and deities that other groups don't recognize as authoritative. Fourth, tribes, like the individuals within them, are prone to biased fairness, allowing group-level self-interest to distort their sense of justice. Fifth, tribal beliefs are easily biased. Biased beliefs arise from simple self-interest, but also from more complex social dynamics. Once a belief becomes a cultural identity badge, it can perpetuate itself, even as it undermines the tribe's interests. Finally, the way we process information about social events can cause us to underestimate the harm we cause others, leading to the escalation of conflict. ~ Joshua Greene
Resolving Conflict quotes by Joshua Greene
For to be desperate is to discover strength. / We die of comfort and by conflict live ... ~ May Sarton
Resolving Conflict quotes by May Sarton
Only thing that can resolve conflict is love, like I felt for Fletch and Ruski, Spooner, and Calico. Pure love. What I feel for my cats past and present.

Love? What is it?
Most natural painkiller what there is.
LOVE. ~ William S. Burroughs
Resolving Conflict quotes by William S. Burroughs
Understanding the nature of conflict leads to peace. ~ Lester B. Pearson
Resolving Conflict quotes by Lester B. Pearson
Conflicts in relationships - having an annoying office mate or room-mate, or having chronic conflict with your spouse - is one of the surest ways to reduce your happiness. You never adapt to interpersonal conflict;45 it damages every day, even days when you don't see the other person but ruminate about the conflict nonetheless. ~ Jonathan Haidt
Resolving Conflict quotes by Jonathan Haidt
Every place in the world where there are two peoples - two religions, two languages - there is friction and conflict. ~ Avigdor Lieberman
Resolving Conflict quotes by Avigdor Lieberman
Silence isn't always agreement. Sometimes people no longer argue because they no longer care. ~ Joyce Rachelle
Resolving Conflict quotes by Joyce Rachelle
Palestinians need to stop the incitement. They need to stop that kind of activity. But at the same time, there is a need to see the broader conflict here and understand that there has to be some kind of ultimately negotiated political track that's going to resolve the difference between Palestinians and Israelis. ~ John F. Kerry
Resolving Conflict quotes by John F. Kerry
The perennial lot of human beings and human societies is animosities, antagonisms, and acrimonies. Power, venality, bitterness, and cynicism result in unavoidable conflict, cleavages, schisms, and disharmonies in human affairs. Erosion of standards and values creates disaffection, disillusionment, dissidence, and social instability. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Resolving Conflict quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Everyone has a unique problem of their own, an issue that follows them throughout life and never goes away. You discover it early and go on to struggle with it for the rest of your life, almost until it eventually becomes an old enemy that you lose the will to fight or hate anymore. And just as every person has their own void, their own haunt or their own unanswered question ... they also have the power to turn it into a legacy every bit as profound as they make it. ~ Ashly Lorenzana
Resolving Conflict quotes by Ashly Lorenzana
