Keeping Peace

Famous quotes containing the words keeping and/or peace:

“In the middle of the night, as indeed each time that we lay on the shore of a lake, we heard the voice of the loon, loud and distinct, from far over the lake. It is a very wild sound, quite in keeping with the place and the circumstances of the traveler, and very unlike the voice of a bird. I could lie awake for hours listening to it, it is so thrilling.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“‘Ye are brothers! ye are men!
And we conquer but to save:—
So peace instead of death let us bring:”
—Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)
