Peace comes from within.  Do not seek it without.

Gautama Buddha
About This Quote

A true hero is a person who is a credit to himself, his family, and his country. He is a good citizen and contributes to the welfare of his community. He respects law and order and obeys the laws of the land. At the same time, he is fair in his dealings with others.

A hero is above petty jealousy or selfish ambition. The strive for peace within him is so strong that he confines his ambitions to the proper sphere, and secretly uses all peaceful means to achieve them.
