Yehuda Berg Quotes

Can we all get along?

We don't need no more danger, we don't need no more difficulties, we don't need no more misunderstanding, and we don't need no more violence. We need the people to see each other and know of each other, feel each other, touch each other, share with each other, and change hearts with each other.

Kindness is the light that dissolves all walls between souls, families, and nations.

Understanding precedes peace.

Love breeds tolerance, tolerance breeds peace. ... Love cannot be indifferent. It does not know how.

Love is higher than opinion. If people love one another the most varied opinions can be reconciled - thus one of the most important tasks for humankind today and in the future is that we should learn to live together and understand one another. If this human fellowship is not achieved, all talk of development is empty.

The peace we seek to win is not victory over any other people, but the peace that comes "with healing in its wings;" with compassion for those who have suffered; with understanding for those who have opposed us; with the opportunity for all the peoples of this Earth to choose their own destiny.

Acceptance is the truest kinship with humanity.

Peace is not won by those who fiercely guard their differences, but by those who with open minds and hearts seek out connections.

Why can't we all just get along?

We may not always see eye to eye, but we can try to see heart to heart.
