John Lennon Quotes

Islam teaches tolerance, not hatred; universal brotherhood, not enmity; peace, and not violence.

This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.

I promote peace and positivity.

The quest for a war-free world has a basic purpose: survival. But if in the process we learn how to achieve it by love rather than by fear, by kindness rather than by compulsion; if in the process we learn to combine the essential with the enjoyable, the expedient with the benevolent, the practical with the beautiful, this will be an extra incentive to embark on this great task.

The evils which of necessity encompass the life of man are sufficiently numerous. Why should we add to them by voluntarily distressing and destroying one another? Peace, brothers, is better than war. In a long and bloody war, we lose many friends, and gain nothing. Let us then live in peace and friendship together, doing to each other all the good we can.

Until we have created a romance of peace that would equal that of war, violence will not disappear from people's lives.

Peace, if it ever exists, will not be based on the fear of war but on the love of peace.

We will never bring peace at the hands of war. As a species we have to rise above it.

Make Love, Not War

Hatred ever kills, love never dies. Such is the vast difference between the two. What is obtained by love is retained for all time. What is obtained by hatred proves a burden in reality for it increases hatred." - by Mohandas K. Gandhi -

Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression, and violence, and enjoy it to the full.

Let us develop respect for all living things. Let us try to replace violence and intolerance with understanding and compassion. And love.

It is the law of love that rules mankind. Had violence, i.e. hate, rules us we would have become extinct long ago. And yet, the tragedy of it is that the so-called civilised men and nations conduct themselves as if the basis of society was violence.

I want to convey that there is hope? that we're a world that is in turmoil but there is hope. I'm always amazed at how much love is in people's hearts even when they disagree about things. I think it's important for people to come together in music. It reminds me of the Margaret Mead saying, 'Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. ' I think that's really true.

We are not trying to solve the world's problems... However, even in the midst of hatred and killing, there are things worth living for. A wonderful encounter, or a thing of beauty can still exist.

Peace should be our future.

We do not need guns and bombs to bring peace, we need love and compassion.

Peace is our passion.

Just bring love. Everybody keeps bringing violence, let's bring love.

There is nothing more powerful than peace.
