Keeping Peace

Famous quotes containing the words keeping and/or peace:

    Jealousy is in some measure just and reasonable, since it merely aims at keeping something that belongs to us or we think belongs to us, whereas envy is a frenzy that cannot bear anything that belongs to others.
    —Francois Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Better and safer is an assured peace than a victory hoped for. The one is in your own power, the other is in the hands of the gods.
    Titus Livius (Livy)
