Man's greatest blunder has been in trying to make peace with the skies instead of making peace with his neighbors.

My first wish is to see this plague of mankind, war, banished from the earth.

Do nothing unto anyone that you would not like to have done unto yourself. Seek peace, and never be the aggressor—but if anyone attacks you, we do not teach you to turn the other cheek.

I believe that our Great Maker is preparing the world, in His own good time, to become one nation, speaking one language, and when armies and navies will be no longer required.

But I won't bore you any longer on the subject of old men. It won't make things any better and all my plans of revenge (such as disconnecting the lamp, shutting the door, hiding his clothes) must be abandoned in order to keep the peace. Oh, I'm becoming so sensible! ...

Hope for an end to war, hope for peace.

Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one

The world is now too small for anything but brotherhood.

No, really: I can't fight, I never could. I can't bring myself to dislike anyone enough.

Now it's time for America to bind the wounds of division.

We can imagine a world at peace, a planet healed, and all sentient beings happy.
