CELEBRATING GLOBAL TOLERANCE AND WORLD PEACE !
Metin Bereketli has dedicated this original painting to Global Tolerance and WORLD PEACE !Peace & Tolerace Quotes "I would rather have peace in the world than be president" Harry S Truman "The highest result of education is tolerance". Helen Keller “Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.” Buddha quotes “Peace is its own reward.” Mahatma Gandhi “All we are saying is give peace a chance.” John Lennon “Peace at Home, Peace in the World” Mustafa Kemal Atatürk “If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.” Mahatma Gandhi “Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.” Ralph Waldo Emerson “There was never a good war or a bad peace.” Benjamin Franklin “Let us forgive each other - only then will we live in peace” Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy “Avoid popularity if you would have peace.” Abraham Lincoln “It is more difficult to organize a peace than to win a war; but the fruits of victory will be lost if the peace is not organized.” Aristotle "I never will, by any word or act, bow to the shrine of intolerance or admit a right of inquiry into the religious opinions of others." Thomas Jefferson “Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures.” John Fitzgerald Kennedy “First keep the peace within yourself, then you can also bring peace to others.” Thomas Kempis "America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings". Barack Obama "What is tolerance? It is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty and error; let us pardon reciprocally each other's folly - that is the first law of nature". Voltaire "I have seen great intolerance shown in support of tolerance'. Samuel Taylor Coleridge "Every religious group, while perhaps a majority somewhere, is also inevitably a minority somewhere else. Thus, religious organizations should and do show tolerance toward members of other religious denominations". Russell M. Nelson "Without tolerance, our world turns into hell". Friedrich Durrenmatt "We may not always agree with every one of our neighbors. That's life. And it's part of living in such a diverse and dense city. But we also recognize that part of being a New Yorker is living with your neighbors in mutual respect and tolerance. It was exactly that spirit of openness and acceptance that was attacked on 9/11, 2001". Michael Bloomberg "Tolerance implies no lack of commitment to one's own beliefs. Rather it condemns the oppression or persecution of others." John Fitzgerald Kennedy "Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding." Anonymous
