Quote to remember by...

This week's blog is very simple. Look at last week's blog "Words are powerful" and pick a qoute that best represents peace and briefly explain why you choose this quote in complete sentences. The quotes will be used for the flowering pots for our project "Plants for Peace." You may add a different quote if you can find a better one.

Yes, we love peace, but we are not willing to take wounds for it, as we are for war.
John Andrew Holmes

This quote represents peace because, there is no peace in the world because, we aren't willing to lose something for it. It's easy to start peace and it's easy to start war. Well take a bullet for a person, family, something, someone, or a country, but we're not willing to start peace so you don't have to start war, or you don't have to take a bullet for no one.

We can put the quote "remember loved ones that have passed away and we still remember their words of wisdom" that is a good quote because it makes a lot of since for people who have lost loved ones.

Words may be powerful. Words like love, care, trust, Friendships. They all have to do with peace. We all need to do that to make the world good. To make the world a better place. Flowers yea some people like them and they make people happy. It also makes people clam down. " Love is, above all else, the gift of oneself." That tells you to have peace we all have to contribute to it.

Peace is a gift,
It is a gift we give to ourselves,
And then to each other.
Richard Goode Founder


I would first like to point out the first part of this prompt. The first part of this prompt says that peace is a gift. Since peace is a gift, you shouldn't take advantage of it.

The quote that i had talk about was interesting. It was care about the world the way you would care about yourself. The reason i said that because you have the fact that you need to treat the world right and not bad.

Peace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and all that we are, toward creating a world that supports everyone. But it is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they have and all that they are.

One day we must come to see that peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but that it is a means by which we arrive at that goal. We must pursue peaceful ends through peaceful means. BY Martin Luther King
This a good quote and I think this tells about peace. It defines the word peace and gives information about peace. It tells what peace is and it goes deeper into what peace is.

The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.

-- Black Elk (1863-1950)

Jean Anouilh:Love is, above all else, the gift of oneself

I chose this quote because it truly expresses peace. If it talks about love then it's automatically peace. I like this qoute a lot and i believe it has alot of meanings.

All the quotes that I read before during this class were all good. The quote that I like the most is the one that had to do with saying the quotes that you are amazed by. I put a quote that my mom always tells me wich is to always try my best and never give up. Every quote that people sa are going to affect you in life.

"I can't do it" never yet accomplished anything; 'I will try' has performed wonders"

George P. Burnham

I picked that quote because, it's talking about accomplishing stuff. For example, it says that i cant do it and i cant accomplished every thing.

From my eyes I see a land of peace,
For as far as my eyes can see!
Should you look into my eyes, to see what I see;
Then, you too, will see this land of peace ~~Johnny Bruce Grinols


I believe that this poem is a very short and simple effective poem. This poem overall ceases to people's perspectives of peace. It has my perspective of peace and I believe that everybody has the same view as me. Everybody eye's cry for peace and this poem is our gift.
