Peace Accord

Famous quotes containing the words peace and/or accord:

    man will be blotted out, the blithe earth die, the brave sun
    Die blind and blacken to the heart:
    Yet stones have stood for a thousand years, and pained thoughts
    found
    The honey of peace in old poems.
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)

    I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality.... Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
